Linking two objects together via API

SHQuinn4Com

Hello!

I alredy have an API that will create a new object for a client within I-DoIt, however I would like to expand is so that the new client is assigned to a contact.

I have played around with with cmdb.category.create method, but keep getting the error:

"message=Invalid parameters: Object id invalid. ID must be positive and higher than two"

As a test I try to update a category with the cmdb.category.save method and get the same message. I am using Powershell to do this, my code so far is:

$parameter = @{
        "category" = "C__CATS__PERSON_CONTACT_ASSIGNMENT"
        "apikey" = $APIKey
        "language" = "en"
        "object" = 9217
        "data" = @{
            "objID" = 14131
            "description" = "Computer"
            }      
        
        }

$Commands = @{
    "jsonrpc" = "2.0"
    "method" = "cmdb.category.create"
    "params" = $parameter
    "id" = 1
}

Invoke-RestMethod -uri xxxxxxxx -ContentType application/json -Method Post -Body ($Commands | ConvertTo-Json ) -Headers @{ Authorization = $Auth}

I know I am missing something, but can't find anything in the documentation to help me further

Hello @SHQuinn4Com,

short and painless

cmdb.category.save = Key -> object
cmdb.category.create = Key -> objID
