Get a Field Requirement v 3.0 crm.[type].field.required.get

Choose a tool for developing with an AI agent:

  • use Alaio Vibecode to build an app for Bitrix24 from a task description without knowing any programming language. The agent writes the code and deploys the app to a server, with no manual hosting setup
  • use the MCP server to develop a REST API integration in your own project. The agent refers to the official REST documentation

Scope: crm

Who can execute the method: a user with the "Edit CRM preferences" permission in CRM

This method belongs to REST 3.0. The call specifics and response format of the new API version are described in the REST 3.0 overview.

The crm.<type>.field.required.get method returns the field requirement configuration: the mode and the stages at which the field is required. The object type is set by the <type> segment of the method name.

Method Name for the Object Type

Object type

Method

Fields

Deal

crm.deal.field.required.get

Deal fields

Lead

crm.lead.field.required.get

Lead fields

Contact

crm.contact.field.required.get

Contact fields

Company

crm.company.field.required.get

Company fields

Estimate

crm.quote.field.required.get

Estimate fields

Invoice

crm.smartinvoice.field.required.get

Invoice fields

SPA

crm.smartprocess<entityTypeId>.field.required.get, for example, crm.smartprocess1038.field.required.get

SPA fields

For an SPA, the method name includes the type ID entityTypeId. SPA type IDs are returned by the crm.type.list method in the entityTypeId field. SPAs have field requirement methods regardless of the type settings. My company does not have these methods: for crm.mycompany.field.required.get, Bitrix24 returns the "Method Not Found" error.

The method name is written in lowercase: crm.smartinvoice.field.required.get, not crm.smartInvoice.field.required.get. If the name is written in a different case, the method returns the "Method Not Found" error.

Method Parameters

Required parameters are marked with *

Name
type

Description

fieldId*
string

Field name: a standard field in camelCase, for example, title or opportunity, or a custom field, for example, UF_CRM_CONTRACT_NUMBER. Field names are returned by the crm.<type>.field.list method

categoryId
integer

Pipeline ID. When to pass it

The categoryId Parameter

Bitrix24 stores the field requirement separately for each pipeline. Whether to pass categoryId depends on the object type:

Object type

categoryId

Deal, contact, company

Required. The default pipeline is set by 0, other pipelines by their IDs from the crm.<type>.category.list method

SPA

Required. The pipeline ID is returned by:

  • the crm.<type>.category.list method if pipelines are enabled in the type
  • the crm.category.list method with the entityTypeId of the SPA if pipelines are disabled. Such a type has no pipeline methods and only one pipeline

Invoice

Required. The invoice pipeline ID is returned by the crm.category.list method with entityTypeId = 31: REST 3.0 has no pipeline method for invoices

Lead, estimate

Not passed

If categoryId does not follow the rules in the table, the method returns an error.

Code Examples

How to Use Examples in Documentation

The new API call differs by adding the /api/ segment to the request URL:

https://{installation_address}/rest/api/{user_id}/{webhook_token}/crm.smartprocess1038.field.required.get

The examples retrieve the requirement of the "Contract number" field in pipeline 69 of an SPA with the type ID 1038. For a different object type, replace the method name according to the table above.

curl -X POST \
        -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
        -H "Accept: application/json" \
        -d '{"fieldId":"UF_CRM_CONTRACT_NUMBER","categoryId":69}' \
        https://**put_your_bitrix24_address**/rest/api/**put_your_user_id_here**/**put_your_webhook_here**/crm.smartprocess1038.field.required.get
        
curl -X POST \
        -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
        -H "Accept: application/json" \

CRM methods are not yet included in the list of REST 3.0 methods known to $b24.actions.v3.call.make: such a call returns the SDK error JSSDK_CORE_METHOD_NOT_SUPPORT_IN_API_V3. Call the method through the REST 3.0 HTTP client — $b24.getHttpClient(ApiVersion.v3).call.

b24pysdk has no ready-made wrappers for CRM methods, and the SDK sends to REST 3.0 only the methods from the Config().api_v3_methods list. Add the method to this list and call it via bitrix_token.call_method with prefer_version=3.

Statuses and System Error Codes

HTTP Status: 4xx, 5xx

The errors described below are returned by the REST API itself, not by the logic of a specific method. They can arrive in response to any method.

Status

Code
Error Message

Description

500

INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR
Internal server error

An internal server error has occurred. Retry the call, and if the error persists, contact the server administrator or Bitrix24 technical support

500

ERROR_UNEXPECTED_ANSWER
Server returned an unexpected response

The server returned an unexpected response. Retry the call, and if the error persists, contact the server administrator or Bitrix24 technical support

503

QUERY_LIMIT_EXCEEDED
Too many requests

The request intensity limit has been exceeded

429

OPERATION_TIME_LIMIT
Method is blocked due to operation time limit

The method is blocked because the request resource intensity limit has been exceeded. The block is lifted automatically once the accumulated execution time of the method no longer exceeds the limit

401

NO_AUTH_FOUND
Wrong authorization data

The request contains no authorization data: neither an access token nor a webhook code was passed

401

INVALID_REQUEST
Https required

Methods are called over the HTTPS protocol only

401

OVERLOAD_LIMIT
REST API is blocked due to overload

The REST API is blocked due to overload. This is a manual individual block. To have it lifted, contact Bitrix24 technical support

401

ACCESS_DENIED
REST is available only on commercial plans

REST API access is not active for this account. In Bitrix24 Cloud, check the current plan or trial status: Vibe+ plans include REST API access, while Essentials plans do not. A webhook receives a different error message — REST is available only by subscription

401

INVALID_CREDENTIALS
Invalid request credentials

No active webhook with the specified user identifier and secret code was found

404

ERROR_METHOD_NOT_FOUND
Method not found!

No method with this name was found. The name is misspelled, the method does not exist in the REST API, or it is unavailable without the required scope

401

insufficient_scope
The request requires higher privileges than provided by the webhook token

The request requires broader permissions than the token has: for a webhook these are the permissions granted to it, for an application it is the scope. For an application, the error message ends with provided by the access token

401

expired_token
The access token provided has expired

The access token has expired

401

user_access_error
The user does not have access to the application

The application is installed, but the Bitrix24 administrator has granted access to it only to specific users

403

PORTAL_DELETED
Portal was deleted

The public part of the site is closed. To open it on an on-premise installation, disable the "Temporary closure of the public part of the site" option. Path to the setting: Desktop > Settings > Product Settings > Module Settings > Main Module > Temporary closure of the public part of the site
