REST API doesn't update SFDC custom variables

I have a smart list which sends out reminder emails when the sfdc field "Downloaded Product?" changes to Yes. When I do this manually by checking the checkbox on the sfdc website, all is well and good. The issue is when I try to update this information through the marketo rest api.

It seems that the sfdc variables aren't being updated. I'm not sure if the value that a salesforce checkbox is expecting is a "Yes"/"No" string or a true/false boolean, but neither one is changing the value in sfdc.

Here's an example request:

POST to MARKETO_ENDPOINT/leadCapture/save
{
                "Email": XXXXXXX@XXXXX.XXX,
                "Downloaded_Product__c": "Yes",
                "formid": XXX,
                "lpId": XXXX,
                "subId": XXX,
                "munchkinId": XXX-XXX-XXX,
                "_mkt_trk": "return"
}

Is there any reference on how to update sfdc variables that i missed?

Re: REST API doesn't update SFDC custom variables

Hi Bob, this doesn't look like any of the Marketo REST APIs.  Could you point me to the documentation for the call that you're trying to execute?
