Golden Rules
- •Discover fields first - Run
attio fields <type>before updating records - •Check select options - Run
attio options <type> <field>for dropdown values - •Use internal values - Select fields use internal names, not display labels
- •When uncertain, use notes - Put unstructured data in notes, not record fields
- •Format data correctly - Numbers as
85, arrays as["Value"], booleans astrue/false
Workflow Index
Load these references as needed:
- •Company workflows -
references/company_workflows.md - •Deal workflows -
references/deal_workflows.md - •Field guide -
references/field_guide.md
