Web API - Create new post entity

Posted on by Community Member Microsoft Employee

Hello,

I want to create a new post entity using the Web API. I tried sending a POST http request to /api/data/v.8.2/posts with the body

POST /api/data/v8.2/posts
{
  "text":"sometext",
}

however I receive an error message saying "An unexpected error occurred." I believe this error occurred because I did not bind my post entity to an incident. I tried different http requests:

POST /api/data/v8.2/posts
{
  "text":"sometext",
  "postregardingid": "/postregardings(someguid)"
}

POST /api/data/v8.2/posts
{
  "text":"sometext",
  "postregardingid": {
        "postregardingid": "someguid",
        "regardingobjectid_incident@odata.bind": "/incidents(someguid)"
  }
}

but each one gave me an error. Is there a working example of how to create a post entity using a POST http request?

Thanks
