Products

• The API Attribute ID (and include in Data Warehouse) option is grayed our / read only for a Boolean field.
• This prevents being able to syn the data from this field in the object (such as Idea) to a Roadmap Item.

Cause

This can happen due to a corruption of the field

Resolution

1. From the Object, click on the attribute with the issue.
2. Scroll down to the 'Display Mappings' section
3. Click on the drop down that shows "Color" and change it to "Icon"
The API Attribute ID field should now be able to be edited (along with the Include in Data Warehouse field)
