Querying custom field through REST API in VersionOne

Question

Query:

I have a custom field named Custom_ProductOwner and I am trying the below query.

/rest-1.oauth.v1/Data/Story?sel=Custom_ProductOwner

I get this error. How do I query custom fields using REST API?

{"Error":{"Exception":[{"Message":"Unknown token: Custom_ProductOwner","class":"VersionOne.MetaException"},{"Message":"(1) Unknown AttributeDefinition: Story.Custom_ProductOwner\n(2) Unknown token: Custom_ProductOwner","class":"VersionOne.MultipleException"}],"Message":"Invalid SEL parameter","href":"/Example/rest-1.oauth.v1/Data/Story?Custom_ProductOwner&where=Scope='Scope:251757'"}}

Thank you Bhushan

That's the correct form of the rest-1.v1 query but maybe the attribute name is not exactly what you expect. The name is case sensitive.

To query the metadata, you can use the meta.v1 endpoint.

<System Base URI>/meta.v1/Story?xsl=api.xsl
