Can't add rows via API

[mokkin]

Steps to reproduce

I'm trying to write a row via API to a table. To achieve this I'm using the HTTP request node of n8n. No matter if I'm using the API v1 or v2 I can't successfully execute the command. In the log of Nextcloud I'm getting

[tables] Fehler: An internal error or exception occurred: Column with id 0 is not part of table with id 33
	POST /ocs/v2.php/apps/tables/api/2/tables/33/rows
	von 188.34.185.95 von demo um 04.01.2025, 21:20:19

This is the body I'm trying to send:

{
      "data": {
        "columnId": 233,
        "value": "Augusto"
      }
}

Other commands like GET /index.php/apps/tables/api/1/tables/33/columns are working and it can be clearly seen that table 33 has a column 233:

[
  {
    "id": 233,
    "tableId": 33,
    "title": "Name",
    "createdBy": "demo",
    "createdByDisplayName": "demo",
    "createdAt": "2025-01-04 00:49:00",
    "lastEditBy": "demo",
    "lastEditByDisplayName": "demo",
    "lastEditAt": "2025-01-04 00:49:00",
    "type": "text",
    "subtype": "line",
    "mandatory": false,
    "description": "",
    "numberDefault": null,
    "numberMin": null,
    "numberMax": null,
    "numberDecimals": 0,
    "numberPrefix": "",
    "numberSuffix": "",
    "textDefault": "",
    "textAllowedPattern": null,
    "textMaxLength": null,
    "selectionOptions": [],
    "selectionDefault": null,
    "datetimeDefault": null,
    "usergroupDefault": [],
    "usergroupMultipleItems": false,
    "usergroupSelectUsers": false,
    "usergroupSelectGroups": false,
    "showUserStatus": false
  }
]

The same with GET /index.php/apps/tables/api/1/tables/33/rows

[
  {
    "id": 3024,
    "tableId": 33,
    "createdBy": "demo",
    "createdAt": "2025-01-04 00:51:53",
    "lastEditBy": "demo",
    "lastEditAt": "2025-01-04 00:51:53",
    "data": [
      {
        "columnId": 233,
        "value": "Paulo"
      }
    ]
  }
]

I don't know why, but with this escaped expression it is working:

{"data":   "{\"233\":\"Augusto\"}" }

Shouldn't be like that, or?

Now in this example you need to escape it, otherwise you already have open double quotes.

In the holidays i did some stuff and never had an issues with creating rows: https://codeberg.org/blizzz/fahrplan2tables/src/branch/main/src/Domain/Tables/Manager.php#L51-L57

Might be n8n is doing something there? 🤷

To check this I tried with curl and I'm getting the same result:

 curl -X 'POST' -u demo:'password'\
  'https://wolke.netzinstitut.de/ocs/v2.php/apps/tables/api/2/tables/33/rows' \
  -H 'accept: application/json' \
  -H 'OCS-APIRequest: true' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{
      "data": {
        "columnId": 233,
        "value": "Augusto"
      }
}'
{"ocs":{"meta":{"status":"failure","statuscode":500,"message":""},"data":{"message":"Es ist ein unerwarteter Fehler aufgetreten. Weitere Details findest du in den Protokollen. Bitte wende dich an deine Administration."}}}%

Using the escaped format works as well:

curl -X 'POST' -u demo:'password'\
  'https://wolke.netzinstitut.de/ocs/v2.php/apps/tables/api/2/tables/33/rows' \
  -H 'accept: application/json' \
  -H 'OCS-APIRequest: true' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{"data":   "{\"233\":\"Augusto\"}" }'
{"ocs":{"meta":{"status":"ok","statuscode":200,"message":"OK"},"data":{"id":3030,"tableId":33,"createdBy":null,"createdAt":null,"lastEditBy":null,"lastEditAt":null,"data":[{"columnId":233,"value":"Augusto"}]}}}%

It's not an issue on our side (endpoint are also used from the web ui, for instance). Perhaps try --data-binary, `--json' or such with curl when passing the data to it.
