Updating custom fields when creating a live collection item via the API

Is there a way to update fields other than name and slug when creating a live collection item via the API in the Python SDK. I have several custom fields that I want to update.

Yes, you use your custom fieldData names.

Generally those match the field slug, but might not if you’ve renamed them. Best way to know is to do a Get first, and view the field names, or check the schema through get collection details
