02/28/2020, 8:35 PMHas anyone ever used the Commerce API order method setItemOptions(itemlineid, optionMap) and gotten it to work. I don’t understand what the documentation in SuiteCommerce Developer for the optionMap argument is asking for. I have tried different data structures and none of them work. The values in the custom option fields are never updated. I have tried the following values for optionMap:
{options: [{id: custom_field_id, value: some_value}]}
{options: {custom_field_id: some_value}}
I have also tried leaving out the {options: …} part, but I get an error that says “options” is required.
The documentation says “optionMap [required] {Array of Item Option ID value pairs}”
I am left wondering if this method works at all. Any ideas?

var option_map = {
custcol_personalized: 'T'
};
order.setItemOptions(lineid, option_map);PabloZ

02/28/2020, 9:17 PM@PabloZ, thanks. Just to double check you can confirm that this works? I hate to ask, but I thought I tested this, but I am not sure what my data structure looked like when I left out the {options: …}

02/28/2020, 9:52 PMOMG. You are a life saver. I ran other test with a list/record custom transaction line field and it worked. I discovered you do not need to include all of the existing item options and line fields when you update the item options. The option_map only needs to contain the fields you want to change.
