pyairtable.api.params.InvalidParamException: 'return_fields_by_field_id' is not a supported parameter

See original GitHub issue

Why does this crash? print(table.all(return_fields_by_field_id=True))

I’ve taken it from: https://pyairtable.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#parameters

Running python 3.10 and pyairtable 1.1.0 from pip

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "script.py", line 56, in main

    raise InvalidParamException(msg)
pyairtable.api.params.InvalidParamException: 'return_fields_by_field_id' is not a supported parameter

Is this somehow a reserved naming schema? all other options seem to work. I even copied it from the source code: https://github.com/gtalarico/pyairtable/blob/6dbc0edb8044d12601fdf5f2ea72934c0e182283/pyairtable/api/params.py#L88

It seems to be not in version 1.1.0, could you please release a new version? 😃 Sorry haven’t been able to release yet. While I have some automations in place it’s currently still requires a few manual steps to release a new version (bump version, change log, tag release). It may take anywhere from a few days to a few weeks.

If anyone know, I am happy to use that workaround in the meantime

You can install by commit rather than latest version until a new version is released:

pip install git+https://github.com/gtalarico/pyairtable.git@3592deef1b1044d4b9c2b4c85441a57626011840
