Working with the Status Column

If you’ve ever tried to GET the values of a status column or PUT new values in, you’ve probably noticed that a number value is used to identify the different status labels. We’ve made this quick key to help you map those numbers to the corresponding label colors in your account:

This may have changed since the original post was made as I’ve found these don’t seem to match up for me.

In case it helps, this is how they’re mapped on mine.

Original / Actual
0 = 19
1 = 1
2 = 6
3 = 0
4 = 4
5 = 5
6 = 12
7 = 7
8 = 3
9 = 9
10 = 10
11 = 11
12 = 8
13 = 13
14 = 17
15 = 15
16 = 16
17 = 14
18 = 18
19 = 2

Hey @leonadarr! With our new API, you can also pass the label of the Status to our change_column_values operations. This should make marking an item as “Done” a whole lot easier!

Hi @Trey - Is this still the best source for getting status column colors?
