We are testing the ‘Place Order’ API event in our sandbox account and everything seems to be working fine, except the value that we are sending through is not showing up as the ‘placed order value’, when I view the metric, in the Profile associated to this order.  I’m attaching a screenshot of the body we are sending (with value highlighted) and the view in the Klaviyo Profile.  Is there some other variable we should be passing here?  Or, do we have it formatted incorrectly?

 

value is set to 11.43

 

see that Placed Order Value is 0.00

Hi @CoBE_Sean,

I think you have to nest the value key/value under the attributes object and not at the root of data object.  See the example in Klaviyo’s Create Event endpoint:

curl --request POST \
--url https://a.klaviyo.com/api/events/ \
--header 'Authorization: Klaviyo-API-Key your-private-api-key' \
--header 'accept: application/json' \
--header 'content-type: application/json' \
--header 'revision: 2023-02-22' \
--data '
{
"data": {
"type": "event",
"attributes": {
"profile": {
"newKey": "New Value"
},
"metric": {
"name": "Viewed Product"
},
"properties": {
"newKey": "New Value"
},
"time": "2022-11-08T00:00:00",
"value": 9.99
}
}
}
'

value is under the attributes Object.

Give that a try!
