Hello,

I’m using the REST API to request information from a board, using `GET /v2/boards/{board_id}/items`. I have some sticky notes in different colors in my board, however the returned `fillColor` in `style.fillColor` is always `light_yellow`, even if the sticky note has a different color. Other style properties (e.g. `textAlign`) work correctly - but the `fill_color` is always `light_yellow`.

I’ve implemented this functionality ~1 year ago, and it definitely worked back then - did something change that broke this, is this a bug or intended behavior? If intended, is there any other way to figure out the color of a sticky note?

Hey ​@Jimmyyy 

I’ve just tested the following REST API call:

 

curl --request GET \
     --url 'https://api.miro.com/v2/boards/<board-id>/items?type=sticky_note' \
     --header 'accept: application/json' \
     --header 'authorization: Bearer <token>'

And I did see output like this:

 

  "id": "<id>",
      "type": "sticky_note",
      "data": {
        "content": "test",
        "shape": "square"
      },
      "style": {
        "fillColor": "dark_green",
        "textAlign": "center",
        "textAlignVertical": "middle"
      },


I’m not quite sure why this is not working for you. If you start a new board and add in two stickies, with two different colors, and try this again, do you still face the same issue? 

Hey ​@Horea Porutiu,

thanks for testing it (and the very fast response!) - unfortunately, I just tested it again and it still doesn’t seem to work for me.

I have the following board (created yesterday): 

with sticky notes that are not light_yellow in my opinion.

I’ve just sent a request to 

GET https://api.miro.com/v2/boards/uXjVI-C1UBA=/items?type=sticky_note

using the same accept and authorization header that you’re using. There, I get the following response:

{
    "size": 7,
    "limit": 10,
    "total": 7,
    "data":  
        {
            "id": "3458764625898346385",
            "type": "sticky_note",
            "data": {
                "content": "<p>Restaurant Management2</p>",
                "shape": "rectangle"
            },
            "style": {
                "fillColor": "light_yellow",
                "textAlign": "right",
                "textAlignVertical": "middle"
            },
 ...]

even though the sticky note is not light_yellow. Using the URL from links.self (https://api.miro.com/v2/boards/uXjVI-C1UBA%3D/sticky_notes/3458764625898346385) returns the same style info.

I’ve also just created a new board:

with the same problem and following response:

{
    "size": 2,
    "limit": 10,
    "total": 2,
    "data":  
        {
            "id": "3458764626030331568",
            "type": "sticky_note",
            "data": {
                "content": "<p>pink</p>",
                "shape": "square"
            },
            "style": {
                "fillColor": "light_yellow",
                "textAlign": "right",
                "textAlignVertical": "middle"
            },

 

I can confirm that issue. 

 

I’ve tested it again and I was able to reproduce the issue. I’ll bring this to our eng team and I’ll update this thread once we find the problem. Thank you for bringing this problem up. 

I have the same issue, in case you need an other example :-)
