Overview

This node interacts with Oracle Eloqua's REST API to update a custom object. It allows users to modify the properties of an existing custom object by specifying its ID and providing updated fields. This is useful for maintaining and managing custom data structures within Eloqua, such as updating metadata or custom attributes associated with marketing data.

Use Case Examples

  1. Updating the description or name of a custom object to reflect new business requirements.
  2. Modifying custom fields of a custom object to store additional information relevant to marketing campaigns.

Properties

Name Meaning
Authentication The authentication method to use for the API request (Basic Authentication or OAuth2).
Name The name of the custom object to update.
ID The unique identifier of the custom object to update.
Additional Fields Optional additional fields for the custom object such as description, email address field ID, display name field ID, unique code field ID, and whether to delete linked custom object data.
Custom custom Object Fields Custom fields to set on the custom object, including field name, data type, display type, key, and value.

Output

JSON

  • id - The ID of the updated custom object.
  • name - The name of the updated custom object.
  • description - The description of the updated custom object.
  • fields - Array of custom fields with their updated values.

Dependencies

  • Oracle Eloqua REST API

Troubleshooting

  • Ensure the custom object ID provided exists; otherwise, the update will fail with a not found error.
  • Verify that the authentication credentials (Basic Auth or OAuth2) are correctly configured and valid.
  • Check that required fields like 'name' and 'id' are provided; missing these will cause validation errors.
  • If updating custom fields, ensure the field keys and data types are correct to avoid API errors.
