Update Activity Link to CRM Item crm.activity.binding.move

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 permission to edit both CRM items, the source and the target

DEPRECATED

The development of this method has been halted. Please use the REST 3.0 method crm.activity.binding.move.

The crm.activity.binding.move method moves an activity binding from one CRM item to another item of the same type. The activity disappears from the timeline of the source item and appears in the timeline of the target item.

For example, you can move an activity from one deal to another. You cannot move an activity from a deal to a contact with this method. To move an activity to a contact, bind it to the contact with the crm.activity.binding.add method and delete the binding to the deal with the crm.activity.binding.delete method.

Method Parameters

Required parameters are marked with *

Name
type

Description

activityId*
integer

Identifier of the activity in the timeline, for example 999.

The ID can be retrieved with the crm.activity.list method

sourceEntityTypeId*
integer

Identifier of the CRM object type to which the deal is linked, for example, 2 for a deal

sourceEntityId*
integer

The identifier of the CRM item to which the activity is bound, for example, 1.

The ID can be retrieved with the crm.activity.binding.list method

targetEntityTypeId*
integer

Identifier of the CRM object type to which the activity should be bound, for example, 2 for a deal. Must match sourceEntityTypeId

targetEntityId*
integer

The identifier of the CRM item to which the activity should be bound, for example, 100.

The ID can be retrieved with the crm.item.list method

            "error": "NOT_FOUND",
            "error_description": "Item was not found."
        }
        

Name
type

Description

error
string

String error code. It consists of digits, Latin letters, and underscores. It may arrive empty — in that case only error_description shows the reason

error_description
string

Error message for the developer. Do not show it to the end user without processing

Possible Error Codes

Status

Code

Description

Value

400

100

Could not find value for parameter

The required parameter activityId, sourceEntityTypeId, sourceEntityId, targetEntityTypeId, or targetEntityId was not passed. The description contains the parameter name

400

100

Invalid value {abc} to match with parameter {activityId}. Should be value of type int.

The parameter value is not an integer. The description contains the parameter name

400

NOT_FOUND

Item was not found

The activity with the activityId identifier was not found. In cloud Bitrix24, the error also occurs for a non-existent CRM item

400

ACCESS_DENIED

Access denied

The user does not have permission to edit the source or target CRM item

400

SOURCE_AND_TARGET_ENTITY_TYPES_ARE_NOT_EQUAL_ERROR

Source and target entity types are not equal

The sourceEntityTypeId and targetEntityTypeId values differ

400

SOURCE_AND_TARGET_ENTITY_ID_ARE_EQUAL_ERROR

Source and target entity ID cannot be equal

The sourceEntityId and targetEntityId values are the same

400

ACTIVITY_IS_ALREADY_BOUND

Activity is already linked to this entity

The activity is already bound to the target item

400

BINDING_NOT_FOUND

Activity is not linked to this entity

The activity is not bound to the source item

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
