Is creation by profile email still allowed in the latest api version?

Hi @diegoeche!
 

May I ask which endpoint in particular you have been using to accomplish this use case? This will help myself and other Community members understand the issue better.

Best,

Brian

Yes, of course. Thank you Brian. I forgot proof-reading this a bit better.

So, right now I'm calling:

POST on:
"https://a.klaviyo.com/client/events/#{auth}"
With a payload like:

```

      body = {
        data: {
          type: "event",
          attributes: {
            profile: profile,
            metric: {name: event_name},
            properties: properties
          }
        }
      }

```

This is "2022-10-17". I use the email as the profile identifier.

Where profile is:
{
          email: "diego@example.com",
}
and properties, whatever we want to send within the event:

We want to update to "2023-08-17":

And I'm sending something like:

```

      body = {
        data: {
          type: "event",
          attributes: {
            profile: {
              data: {
                type: :profile
                # Docs say I need the klaviyo profile id, but we use email.
                # id: <klaviyo-id>
                attributes: profile
              }
            }
            metric: {
              data: {
                type: metric,
                name: event_name
              }
            },
            properties: properties
          }
        }
      }
```

I'm getting this error:

One of `attributes`, `relationships` or `id` must be included

So it feels to me, that newer version don't allow me to create an event using the email as an identifier.

I'd love to edit the title as in: "Is event creation by profile email"

Hey @diegoeche,

Glad to hear you figured out the solution!

I’ll certainly share that feedback with our Product team - especially the ones responsible for our APIs to offer a more clarified error message. 

Thanks for being a part of our Klaviyo Community!
