How to set custom communityId to a Community

General

Hi!

We are looking into integrating with Amity API and are wondering if it is possible to set custom communityId.
From Swagger documentation it seems to be possible in PUT /communities/{communityId}, but somehow adding it to the request is not affecting anything.
https://api-docs.amity.co/#/Community/put_api_v3_communities__communityId_

Main reason to have this functionality is to easily map internal systems with Amity communities without producing additional overhead as mapping tables

@artjoman We don’t support custom ID for the community. If you want to create a new community, you can use POST /communities. For PUT /communities/{communityId}, this API is used for update community data purpose, so the community ID would be the one that is generated from POST /communities.

Thanks for a quick answer!

We will just keep using mapping table solution then!
