Updating the Enterprise attribute

[mfloresBC]

In the boxUsers.psm1 the function boxUpdateUser has a validate set for the attribute parameter of:

('job_title','phone','address','timezone','language','name')

I wanted to use this function to manipulate the enterprise attribute and set it to null. That rolls the user out of the enterprise and gives them the ability to keep all their data in the process. I tried adding the parameter to the function:

('job_title','phone','address','timezone','language','name','enterprise')

but when running the code

boxUpdateUser -env $envName -userid $userid -attribute enterprise -value "null"

I get:

PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> boxUpdateUser -env $envName -userid $userid -attribute enterprise -value 'null'
boxThrowError : Cannot index into a null array.
At C:\Box\box.psm1:696 char:9

•     boxThrowError -text $txt
  

•     ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  

  • CategoryInfo : InvalidOperation: (:) [boxThrowError], RuntimeException
  • FullyQualifiedErrorId : NullArray,boxThrowError

Any chance you could have the code for this operation added?

I think you are on the right track, try sending $null in

boxUpdateUser -env $envName -userid $userid -attribute enterprise -value $null

Hey Matt, I tried that before I posted the comment. I think I know what the issue is but I don’t know how to fix it. Note that the error says: PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> boxUpdateUser -env $envName -userid $userid -attribute enterprise -value $NULL boxThrowError : Cannot index into a null array. At C:\Box\box.psm1:696 char:9 + boxThrowError -text $txt + ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + CategoryInfo : InvalidOperation: (:) [boxThrowError], RuntimeException + FullyQualifiedErrorId : NullArray,boxThrowError The boxApiCall function on box.psm1 has the $body parameter defined as: [parameter(Mandatory=$false)] [Object]$body = @{}, So it seems that the variable cannot take a $NULL value and the exception catches it.
