REST API : Create New Address Links

Hello everyone ,

I’m creating new billing address via REST API.I can insert normal type of variable on my request , it works fine. But I want to link it that billing address to my customer. Anyone can explain how to add on request ?

here is my request example :

  public function new_address(Request $request){
$data = $request->all();
try {
$result = $this->insert(
“New Address”,
array(
“address_title” => $data[‘address_title’],
“address_type” => $data[‘address_type’],
“address_line1” => $data[‘address_line1’],
“address_line2” => $data[‘address_line2’],
“city” => $data[‘city’],
“county” => $data[‘county’],
“state” => $data[‘state’],
“city” => $data[‘city’],
“state” => $data[‘state’],
“pincode” => $data[‘pincode’],
“email_id” => $data[‘email_id’],
“phone” => $data[‘phone’],
“fax” => $data[‘fax’],
// linked???
)
);
return response()->json([‘status’ => Response::HTTP_OK]);
} catch (Exception $e) {
var_dump($e);
}
}

thanks for your help !

You can pass, “links”: [ {“link_doctype”: “Customer”, “link_name”: “Test customer”} ] in your JSON to link the address to customer.
