Is there an API call available in Webflow for updating existing entries after changing a collection field value?

Yes, Webflow provides an API that allows you to update existing entries after changing a collection field value. The API call for updating an entry is known as the "Update Item" API call. Here's how you can use it:

1. Obtain your project's API key: To use Webflow's API, you need to obtain your project's API key. This can be found in your Webflow Project Settings under the "API Access" tab. Click on the "Generate API Key" button to obtain your key.

2. Make an API call to update an item: To update an entry, you need the item's unique identifier known as the "item ID." You can obtain the item ID by making a GET request to the Webflow API and fetching the desired entry's details.

• The API endpoint for updating an item is: https://api.webflow.com/collections/:collectionId/items/:itemId
• Replace :collectionId with the ID of the collection where the entry belongs.
• Replace :itemId with the ID of the item you wish to update.

1. Set the request headers: When making the API call, you need to set the following headers:

• Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY (Replace YOUR_API_KEY with your actual API key).
• Content-Type: application/json

1. Prepare the request body: The request body must contain the updated field value(s) for the item. Include the field(s) you want to update along with their new value(s) in JSON format. For example, to update the value of a field called "name" with a new value "John Doe", the request body will be: {"fields": {"name": "John Doe"}}.

2. Send the API request: Use your preferred programming language or API client to send the API request to the provided endpoint, with the headers and request body.

3. Handle the response: The API will respond with a success status code (200) if the update is successful. Verify the response to ensure that the item has been updated with the new field value(s).

It's important to note that the API call for updating an entry requires authentication, so make sure to keep your API key secure.

Using the Webflow API, you can easily update existing entries by making the appropriate API call. This allows you to automate the process of changing collection field values in your Webflow projects programmatically.
