API Request Body Glitch

I'm currently experiencing an issue with the API request tool where it's copying the field for whatever request body variable I position at the top, to every other variable. The picture I attached shows what I'm trying to explain, whatever request body (e.g location, contactId, etc) I podition at the top in the request body section, that's the one that gets cloned to all others

Anyone else had this same problem? Any help is appreciated

I have a feeling that is just for the test tool, literally like 2-3 weeks ago the test tool function on the tools dashboard wouldn't even let you input variables at all.

They're probably trying to implement it and it's not completely done yet

Hi Jake,

To make a custom API call using the updated ApiRequestApiRequest node, you can configure it in your workflow with features like POST requests, async support, and task status messaging. The previous HttpRequestHttpRequest node is deprecated and should be migrated to ApiRequestApiRequest. Here's the process to configure the ApiRequestApiRequest node:

Node Declaration:

   {
     "type": "api-request",
     "config": {
       "url": "https://api.example.com/endpoint",
       "method": "POST",
       "headers": {
         "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_TOKEN",
         "Content-Type": "application/json"
       },
       "body": {
         "key": "value"
       },
       "isAsync": true
     }
   }

   {
     "type": "api-request",
     "config": {
       "url": "https://api.example.com/endpoint",
       "method": "POST",
       "headers": {
         "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_TOKEN",
         "Content-Type": "application/json"
       },
       "body": {
         "key": "value"
       },
       "isAsync": true
     }
   }

**Configuration Parameters:**
- url: The endpoint for your API call.
- method: Typically POSTPOST, but can be GETGET, etc.
- headers: Any required request headers.
- body: JSON payload for the POST request.
- isAsync: Set to
```
true
```
```
true
```
  for async requests if needed.

For more details, view the changelog. If you're facing any errors, ensure that your backoffPlanbackoffPlan is correctly set for retries, with customizable strategies and delays here.

If any issues persist, let me know, and we'll further investigate.
