Text update on mural

stevendodd

Hi, I am using the API to add and update Stickies on my mural. I can successfully update a sticky, however, the text does not update on the mural itself. If I query the widget via the API, I can see the text has been updated.

I receive a 200 HTTP code response with the following body, the updated tag appears on the sticky notes, but the text remains as the old value:

Updating widget f840c461-4189-4ac2-9999-30ab431bc36a XXP-4673: Your reg

Here is the python code I am using to update the sticky note:

def updateText(muralId,widgetId,type,text,tag):

  url = "https://app.mural.co/api/public/v1/murals/" + muralId + "/widgets/" + type + "/" + widgetId

  payload = {"tags": [tag],"text": text}

  headers = {

    "Authorization": "Bearer {token}".format(token=token),

    "Accept": "application/json",

    "Content-Type": "application/json"

  }

  success = False

  while not success:

    try:

      print("Updating widget {} {}".format(widgetId,text[:20]))   

      response = requests.patch(url, json=payload, headers=headers)

       

      if response.status_code == 200:

        print(response.text)

        success = True

      else:

        print(response.text)

         

    except Exception as e: 

        print(e)

        time.sleep(10)

API response = 200

API query shows text and tag have been updated

Mural shows old text

Mural shows new tag

Hi @stevendodd, thanks for sharing this- I'll send your question to a Muralista who can help.

Hey @stevendodd,

Is there any rich text in the stickies that you are updating? Can you please share a screenshot of the mural/text that you are trying to update using API?

Thanks,

Anuj

Hi, there is no rich text, I created the sticky with the API. It has a hyperlink and some text.

Here is the code that are used to create the sticky:

url = "https://app.mural.co/api/public/v1/murals/" + muralId + "/widgets/sticky-note"  

payload = {

    "height": 260,

    "presentationIndex": -1,

    "rotation": 0,

    "style": {

      "backgroundColor": backgroundColour,

      "bold": False,

      "italic": False,

      "underline": False,

      "strike": False,

      "font": "proxima-nova",

      "fontSize": 15,

      "textAlign": "left",

      "border": False

    },

    "parentId": parentId,

    "width": 280,

    "hyperlink": "https://xx.com/jira/browse/" + issue["key"],

    "hyperlinkTitle": issue["key"],

    "shape": "rectangle",

    "text": issue["summary"],

    "title": issue["issuetype"],

    "x": 20,

    "y": 148

  }

  headers = {

    "Authorization": "Bearer {token}".format(token=token),

    "Accept": "application/json",

    "Content-Type": "application/json"

  }

   

  response = session.post(url, json=payload, headers=headers, timeout=(5, 10))
