Required Field Not Throwing Error in REST API

[Priya84]

Hi,

I have required/mandatory fields in Customer_contact table. When i try to create (POST) a contact via REST API it is creating record with status 201. But  i have a required field account in customer_contacts table.

Please refer below image

Below is the contact which i have created via REST API.

Below image is the response for contact creation.

My question is, Why error not Shown when i try to post a contact via REST API, though a required field is not sent in request payload.

Please check my Screen shot.

can you remove the condition and then try

Data policy will application when you will not have any value in account, so initially you get an error because you had not any value in account then data policy get triggered , in second hit you had value in account then data policy did not apply so kindly remove the condition

Its Working now after removing account condition.

#1.What to do to get errors like  Maximum length exceeded,Invalid data with REST API.  Is this possible to get specific error in API response?.If yes Please tell How to achieve this?

#2.Also is there any possible to add fields in bulk like, all fields in a table or all fields in a view  to data policy .Since the user  may have 30 fields in one table(contact) and 20 fields in another table .Adding each field to data policy will take more time.

Please confirm this.
