Discussion thread from previous developer forum:
Push 'blank' values to back to list using Update or merge a list API
We currently have an integration piece that is synchronizing lists in ActOn with data from our own CRM system.
Integration through API works fine when pushing changes when values are not blank, but does not set the value to blank if it passes up empty string (''). Is there a mergespec/uploadspec setting that I need to change to have empty strings from CSV treated as valid values and have the field values set to blank, or is their a keyword that the API is expecting in the CSV file to do this ( something like '<blank>'). Thanks

To overwrite values with a blank, you'll need to include the parameter 'putEmptyValues' with a value of 'Y'. Please note the parameter is case sensitive!
