InvalidRequestError: Invalid Request: column: Not a valid GID type: number

[shubhamdipt]

client.sections.add_task( section["gid"], params={"task": task["gid"]} )

This throws an error: asana.error.InvalidRequestError: Invalid Request: column: Not a valid GID type: number

Although all the gids used are valid.

It works for me. I just tried.

I think the issue should be closed.

Hi @shubhamdipt, I know this is a very late reply but

Both of the following works:

Method 1:

import os
import asana
from pprint import pprint

client = asana.Client.access_token(os.environ['ASANA_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN'])
result = client.sections.add_task('<YOUR_SECTION_GID>', {'task': '<YOUR_TASK_GID>'})
pprint(result)

Method 2:

import os
import asana
from pprint import pprint

client = asana.Client.access_token(os.environ['ASANA_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN'])
result = client.sections.add_task_for_section('<YOUR_SECTION_GID>', {'task': '<YOUR_TASK_GID>'})
pprint(result)

If you are using Method 1 we recommend switching to using Method 2 as this method was auto generated from our OpenAPI Spec File and is what we define in our developer docs POST /sections/{section_gid}/addTask. We will most likely deprecate Method 1 in a future python-asana client library release since this was a manually written wrapper to call this API endpoint.
