Missing values when creating entry from nodejs api

[parik-ceb]

Hi,
I was able to get the add entry with nodejs API work. I get a successful response but the issue is the values passed in the fields for the content type are not getting populated.

If you notice in the API response the field object is empty. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

The function to create entry:

async createEntry(contentTypeId = 'forms') {
const space = await this.client.getSpace(this.spaceId);
const environment = await space.getEnvironment('master');

const fields = {
  title: {
    'en-US': 'Test Form',
  },
  description: {
    'en-US': {
      content: {
        value: 'Adding a test form',
      },
    },
  },
};

const entry = await environment.createEntry(contentTypeId, fields);
return entry;
}

Response from API:

{ "sys": { "space": { "sys": { "type": "Link", "linkType": "Space", "id": "HIDDEN" } }, "id": "3xGT79qHgMTuOjc6i8cgGV", "type": "Entry", "createdAt": "2020-04-02T19:51:01.267Z", "updatedAt": "2020-04-02T19:51:01.267Z", "environment": { "sys": { "id": "master", "type": "Link", "linkType": "Environment" } }, "createdBy": { "sys": { "type": "Link", "linkType": "User", "id": "HIDDEN" } }, "updatedBy": { "sys": { "type": "Link", "linkType": "User", "id": "HIDDEN" } }, "publishedCounter": 0, "version": 1, "contentType": { "sys": { "type": "Link", "linkType": "ContentType", "id": "forms" } } }, "fields": {} }

After looking at the documentation https://www.contentful.com/developers/docs/references/content-management-api/#/reference/entries/entry/create-update-an-entry/console/js

I have removed environment and directly calling the function from
space.createEntry

still the same issue.

Found the issue I was not constructing the field object correctly. Here is the updated working code.

The function to create entry:

async createEntry(contentTypeId = 'forms') {
const space = await this.client.getSpace(this.spaceId);
const environment = await space.getEnvironment('master');

const fields = {
      fields: {
        title: {
          'en-US': 'Test Form',
        },
      },
    };

const entry = await environment.createEntry(contentTypeId, fields);
return entry;
}
