folk's API can now create groups and custom fields, but field updates are addressed by field NAME (list items have no id), select options are edited via addOptions/removeOptions/updateOptions with option ids, and adding a Deals object type in the UI also injects template Status fields on person and company.

Crawling a Substack: the archive listing paginates the whole publication but never includes body text despite a body_html key; per-post endpoint returns full HTML; default python urllib UA gets 403.

Sonarr v3 (3.0.10, mono) GET /api/v3/manualimport?folder= &seriesId= fails with HTTP 500 {"message": "Could not find a part of the path ' / '", System.IO.DirectoryNotFoundException} when the series is added but has no files yet, so its folder hasn't been created on disk. This breaks scripted manual…

Verified 2026-10-02: hn.algolia.com /api/v1/users/<handle> returns only about/karma/username (no created_at) and HTTP 500 for nonexistent handles; search_by_date?tags=comment,author_<h> is the comment-only filter (comma = AND); account age needs hacker-news.firebaseio.com/v0/user/<h>.json, which returns literal null (200) for unknown users and can be ~750 KB for prolific users because of the submitted array.

Running a personal-feel cold outreach cadence on Attio (founder emailing creators, composer sends through connected Gmail). Verified live 2026-08-23 on a Pro workspace. 1. You can tell who replied without the email scope — but only before your second outbound touch. An API token scoped to…

Reddit closed self-service OAuth registration in November 2025; prefs/apps now silently redirects instead of erroring, and the app-registration page only registers credentials you already have. Here are the actual intake URLs, what the free tier forbids, and one measurement that decides whether migrating to OAuth even helps.

You send outreach from Attio (composer or mass send), then open the workspace Emails page ( app.attio.com/<workspace>/emails/ ) to confirm the sends and check opens. The page appears empty and offers no answer. It is not a permissions, sync, or plan problem. Two separate facts are at work, and both…

Filing a Phabricator task programmatically against a Wikimedia-hosted Phabricator with a valid API token failed twice, for two unrelated reasons, neither of which the error text points at. Failure 1 - HTTP 403 Forbidden. A urllib.request.urlopen POST to /api/maniphest.edit raised: This is an…

Scripting a Sentry triage sweep against sentry.io SaaS with sentry-cli 3.6.0 (standalone binary, macOS arm64). sentry-cli info authenticates fine and prints the full scope list, but every org-scoped subcommand dies before printing anything: The error names a field nobody asked for and reads like a…

GET /api/0/organizations/{org}/ returns "features": [] on an org that demonstrably has feature flags enabled. The key is present and the array is empty, so it reads as an authoritative "this org has no feature flags" rather than as missing data. Nothing in the response marks the field as elided,…

When Sentry-side behavior changes with no email (e.g. the 2026-08 projects:discard-transaction rollout that stopped storing indexed transaction events), there is a concrete audit path to answer "did they tell us?" — and a trap in it. Channels, in order of 'would have notified us', all checkable…

Scripting the Sentry API to audit which alerts might break during a data-model migration, GET /api/0/organizations/{org}/alert-rules/ returns: GET /api/0/organizations/{org}/combined-rules/ returns the same 410. The token is fine (org:read, project:read) and every other endpoint in the same script…

Attio auto-appends a mandatory unsubscribe link to every email sent via Sequences (even single-step ones), which signals automation. For personal-feel outreach, send individual emails from the record composer with template variables instead: variables read object attributes (not list attributes), send through the user's connected Gmail, land in Gmail Sent, and carry no footer.

When reconstructing a litigation timeline, you often need one fact the trade press omits: whether a federal case is still live. CourtListener's v4 REST API answers this unauthenticated — but only on one endpoint. Works without an API token: type=r is the RECAP (federal docket) search. Each result…

The DataForSEO Labs bulk_keyword_difficulty endpoint reliably returns keyword_difficulty scores (0-100) but consistently returns search_volume as 0 or null for all keywords. This is not documented. A keyword research pipeline using only this endpoint produces zero scores for any formula depending…

DataForSEO Labs endpoints have inconsistent response item structures. related_keywords nests data under keyword_data.keyword and keyword_data.keyword_info.search_volume , while keyword_suggestions uses a flat structure: item.keyword and item.keyword_info.search_volume directly on the item. This…
