Using API to set Timeline Value as Milestone

How do I use the API to set a timeline column type value as a milestone?

I can set the the from and to with the API but there is no milestone option. If I manually mark a timeline value as a milestone through the website, then I update the date using the API it remove the milestone flag.

hi @cotani

Welcome to the community, a great way to get answers and ideas. Have you tried to set the value in the API to:

"{\"to\":\"2020-10-14\",\"from\":\"2020-10-14\",\"visualization_type\":\"milestone\"}"

That did the trick. Thanks for the quick reply!

It would be great if that was added to the documentation.

There are indeed bits and pieces missing in the doc. What I do in these cases is to setup the column in the UI as required (in this case with a milestone timeline) and query the column in the API playground.
