How to Unfavorite a Record

Overview

An example in bash script demonstrating how to unfavorite a record using the v11 /<module>/:record/unfavorite REST PUT endpoint.

Unfavoriting a Record

Authenticating

First, you will need to authenticate to the Sugar API. An example is shown below:

  curl -X POST -H Cache-Control:no-cache -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{ 
 "grant_type":"password",
 "client_id":"sugar",
 "client_secret":"",
 "username":"admin",
 "password":"password",
 "platform":"custom_api"
}' https://{site_url}/rest/v11/oauth2/token

More information on authenticating can be found in the How to Authenticate and Log Out example and /oauth2/logout endpoint documentation.

Unfavoriting a Record

Next, we can unfavorite a specific record using the /<module>/:record/unfavorite endpoint.

  curl -s -X PUT -H OAuth-Token:{access_token} -H Cache-Control:no-cache https://{site_url}/rest/v11/Accounts/ae8b1783-404a-fcb8-1e1e-56f1cc52cd1a/unfavorite

More information on the unfavorite API can be found in the /<module>/:record/unfavorite PUT documentation.
