For API GET call, not receiving item type in the payload for custom part.
Hi, We have following scenario, If I do a get call for Part or Requirement, I'm receiving the respective item-types id as 'itemtype':'id' in payload. But if I do get call for a custom Item I'm not receiving the 'itemtype':'id' in its payload. If I have to get the 'itemtype':'id' for a custom item, do I need to update my item type or my API call? Below, I have added API calls and responses for different items. Get Call for Requirement: instance/Server/odata/re_Requirement('D2E185A3F91248CEB219C848C56EC97C')?$expand= Payload: { "@odata.context": "instance/Server/odata/$metadata#re_Requirement/$entity", "classification": "Requirement", "content": "<Requirement aras:id=\"4c2ebcb8a3d544769f42e1238ddb0b55\" reqId=\"70F10587B45F4B7DB612CD2455089234\" xmlns:aras=\"http://aras.com/ArasTechDoc\" xmlns=\"http://www.aras.com/REStandard\"><Requirement-Info aras:id=\"1e9e767cf6d24c838d902d3e1e3e5c65\"><Requirement-Chapter aras:id=\"d1c3cc1e37954198b01ad944bfb74150\"><aras:emph emphtype=\"text\"></aras:emph></Requirement-Chapter><Requirement-Title aras:id=\"7b86d25939b248d99aa3fc6a27aac6ff\"><aras:emph emphtype=\"text\">Asot Req 1</aras:emph></Requirement-Title><Requirement-Number aras:id=\"fe249c8cbe1f4926843bcc65703fa948\"><aras:emph emphtype=\"text\">REQ-000000272</aras:emph></Requirement-Number></Requirement-Info><Text aras:id=\"27be607cf9014ff591071e5a4b62a1e6\" /></Requirement>", "[email protected]": "en", "created_on": "2026-01-14T07:01:01", "[email protected]": "Draft", "generation": 2, "global_version": "32007", "id": "D2E185A3F91248CEB219C848C56EC97C", "is_current": "1", "is_released": "0", "keyed_name": "REQ-000000272 Asot Req 1", "major_rev": "A", "modified_on": "2026-01-19T07:39:05", "new_version": "0", "not_lockable": "0", "req_complexity": "Low", "req_priority": "Low", "req_risk": "Low", "root_element_name": "Requirement", "root_element_type": "Single", "state": "Draft", "item_number": "REQ-000000272", "req_title": "Asot Req 1", "itemtype": "55515617CB224C90AB5A9DAC0F061C2A" } Get Call for Custom Item: instance/Server/odata/poc_ASOT_Item('EE714F53C7D8438990900B58658C5763')?$expand= Payload: { "@odata.context": "instance/Server/odata/$metadata#poc_ASOT_Item/$entity", "created_on": "2026-01-19T13:57:35", "generation": 1, "id": "EE714F53C7D8438990900B58658C5763", "is_current": "1", "is_released": "0", "keyed_name": "ASOT_00086", "major_rev": "A", "modified_on": "2026-01-19T13:57:35", "new_version": "1", "not_lockable": "0", "poc_channel_name": "234", "poc_datasource": "DOORS_SOURCE_1", "poc_datasourcetype": "DOORS", "poc_displayname": "xyz", "poc_fqn": "rr33ee55", "poc_item_number": "ASOT_00086" } Do you know how to do this?

Editing an item via REST API without item id. Can we specify a WHERE attribute?
Hi community, I want to edit a custom item in Innovator via REST API. Typically the command looks like this: PATCH {base url}/Part(’16AA95A80DEB4B56BD8BA9BC509EAF0C’) My 2nd software that shall do the REST call doesn´t know the target item id. I only have the serial number (item_number) of the target item in Innovator. For regular AML queries we can use the WHERE attribute to perform these kinds of edit operations. Is something similar available in the REST API? An alternative solution would be to do a regular GET request first to get the ID. Or maybe a custom Method that does the edit with a standard AML query. Any ideas? What would you recommend? Thanks! Angela
