Assistance Required: "Privilege group can't be blank" Error in Invite a Collaborator API

[rohith-chilakal]

Hello Workato Support Team,

I’m encountering an issue when using the Invite a Collaborator API. While testing in Postman, I received the following error:

**"Privilege group can't be blank"**

Here’s the current request I’m using based on the documentation:

curl -X POST https://www.workato.com/api/member_invitations \
-H 'Authorization: Bearer <api_token>' \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{
"name": "John",
"email": "john@acme.com",
"env_roles": [
{ "environment_type": "dev", "name": "Admin" }
]
}'

I’ve also ensured the following:

The API token I’m using was created with client roles configured.
I tried adding a privilege_group field to the request body outside of the env_roles array.
I verified the roles in env_roles (e.g., "Admin", "Analyst", "Operator") against the documentation.
Despite these efforts, the error persists. Could you please clarify:

Whether an additional privilege_group parameter or any other specific field is required for this API request?
The accepted values for privilege_group and other required fields that might not be explicitly documented.
Thank you for your assistance.

Best regards, C.Rohtih.

The error occurs because the privilege_group field is missing in your request. Add it outside the env_roles array like this:

{
"name": "John",
"email": "john@acme.com",
"privilege_group": "Admin",
"env_roles": [
{ "environment_type": "dev", "name": "Admin" }
]
}
Ensure privilege_group has valid values like "Admin", "Editor", or "Viewer".

Thank you for your earlier response and for clarifying the need to include the privilege_group field. I updated my API request as follows:

{
"name": "John",
"email": "john@acme.com",
"privilege_group": "Admin",
"env_roles": [
{ "environment_type": "dev", "name": "Admin" }
]
}

Despite this, I am still encountering the same error:

"Privilege group can't be blank"
