Standard Import API error message: Invalid shape type

Hello cfitz,

Thank you for your interest in our APIs! I believe I’ve identified the problem. Since org charts must be created from data, we’ve separated them into a object called “dataBackedShapes” rather than “shapes” to show the distinction. Here’s an example of what an org chart json file might look like:

{
  "version": 1,
  "collections": [
	{
	  "id": "org-chart-data",
	  "dataSource": "org-chart.csv"
	}
  ],
  "pages": [
    {
      "id": "page1",
      "title": "Page 1",
      "dataBackedShapes": [
      	{
      	  "type": "orgChart",
      	  "id": "my-org-chart",
      	  "position": {
      	    "x": 0,
      	    "y": 0
      	  },
      	  "collectionId": "org-chart-data",
      	  "idField": "Employee ID",
      	  "foreignKeyField": "Supervisor ID",
      	  "nameField": "Name",
      	  "roleField": "Role",
      	  "imageUrlField": "Image URL",
      	  "extraFields": ["Email", "Cell", "Location"]
      	}
      ]
    }
  ]
}

Note that the only page object has the fields “id”, “title”, and “dataBackedShapes”.

Let me know if this doesn’t fix the issue!
