Updating recall type

Post by akjain1@gmail.com » Thu Mar 02, 2023 6:50 am

Right now, the API does not allow patient recall types to be changed from "Set Prophy" to "Set Perio." We are not able to find API to update recall type 'Prophy' to 'Perio' for the patient. Please help.

For example, this API link (https://www.opendental.com/site/apirecalls.html), shows you can modify many of the recall fields, but NOT Recall Type. Is this something that can be done?

Good afternoon akjain1@gmail.com,

You are correct, currently you cannot change a recalltype via the API. We can add this to our development list. That being said, recalls are complex with many moving parts. (recall, recalltrigger, recalltype tables) To better understand your use case, are you referring to the 'Set Perio' or 'Set Prophy' button found here?

Thanks!

Yes exactly. This is where SET Perio and SET Prophy is found. We would like to change this via a post function with the API.

Recalls GET and Recalls PUT SwitchType are complete.

Recalls PUT SwitchType is what you're after and is available in version 22.4.41.
