Podio View returns too many fields

Question

I'm using the API call Items: Filter items by view

POST /item/app/{app_id}/filter/{view_id}/

The issue I'm having is that Podio is returning many fields specifically excluded from the view.

The app has many calculation fields which contain a lot of data.

I've defined a view to only return the fields I'm interested in, and in the UI in table view, it shows correctly (only 2 fields are included in the view).

But when fetching the view data via API, I get all the calculation fields in the app items that I'm not interested in.

Is this a bug or "expected" behaviour?

Answer 1

This is expected behavior. You can only partially control list of fields returned by filter-items-by-view call.
