Add new fields to default view when creating fields via REST in sharepoint 2013

Question

Hello,
When I add new fields via REST in a list, they don't appear in the default view for that list.
Here is my code in case you need it:
public function creeChamp(nomListe:String, champ:String, type:int, requis:Boolean):void
postURL.data = JSON.stringify({ '__metadata': { 'type': 'SP.Field' }, 'Title': champ, 'FieldTypeKind': type,'Required': requis, 'EnforceUniqueValues': false,'StaticName': champ});
thanks

You need to add the field to the view as well.
Here is the API.
Our code looks pretty different because I'm working in AngularJS, but here's a snippet from a working example:
$http.post(siteUrl + "/_api/web/lists/GetByTitle('" + listName +
"')/Views/GetByTitle('All%20Items')/ViewFields/addViewField('" + columnName + "')",
// POST data is empty for this request
}, getPostConfig())
.then(function (response) {
deferred.resolve("Added column to view");
.catch(function (response) {
deferred.reject('Error ' + response.status + ': ' + response.data.error.message.value)
Bottom line is you just POST to this URL however you normally do - except no data:
"/_api/web/lists/GetByTitle('" + listName + "')/Views/GetByTitle('All%20Items')/ViewFields/addViewField('" + columnName + "')",
Hope this helps!
