invalid card field full row value

Error message

invalid card field full row value [%v]

What it means

setAttrViewColFullRow expects operation.Data to be a Go bool; any other type (string, float, nil, map) fails the type assertion and produces this error. The full-row flag for a card field is strictly boolean.

Solutions

1. Pass a strict boolean in operation.Data (data.FullRow === true / Boolean(value) from a real checkbox).
2. Coerce string inputs explicitly (value === "true") before building the operation.
3. Fix the serializer that is turning booleans into strings or numbers.

Example fix

// before
op.Data = String(checkbox.checked); // "true"
// after
op.Data = checkbox.checked === true;

if (typeof data !== 'boolean') throw new TypeError('full row value must be a boolean');

const isBoolean = (v: unknown): v is boolean => typeof v === 'boolean';

try { await setColFullRow(avID, viewID, fieldID, data); } catch (e) { if (String(e).includes('invalid card field full row value')) { await setColFullRow(avID, viewID, fieldID, data === 'true' || data === 1); } else throw e; }

When it happens

Trigger: Sending a setAttrViewColFullRow transaction operation whose Data is a string "true", a number 1/0, or null instead of a real boolean.

Common situations: JavaScript callers serializing booleans as strings; form inputs yielding "on"/"0"; generic plugin code stuffing the checkbox value into Data without coercion.
