Product Updates

Starting from February 1st, 2020, it will no longer possible to directly create, duplicate, update or delete modular block items using the following endpoints:

• POST /items

• PUT /items/:id

• POST /items/:id/duplicate

• DELETE /items/:id

• DELETE /items/

The only supported way to perform any operation on modular block items will be by updating a modular content field on the parent item.

For example, to create an item with two modular blocks inside its modular content field:

import { SiteClient, buildModularBlock } from 'datocms-client';
const client = new SiteClient('YOUR_TOKEN');
client.items.create({
  itemType: '111',
  content: [
	  buildModularBlock(text: "Foo", itemType: '222'),
	  buildModularBlock(text: "Bar", itemType: '222'),
	]
})

This change is required to ensure atomic, reliable operations on content.
