  • 1.  Account Management API - PATCH operations

    Posted Jul 02, 2018 11:33
    Hi,

    I'm looking into implementing the Account Managment API but a question regarding PATCH operations arised.

    The Account Management API, for each one of the PATCH operations specifies which are the attributes that are considered patchable and non patchable attributes. I'm having an hard time understanding why there are attributes that are considered to be patchable and non patchable for the same operation? For example:
    PATCH /partyAccount/{id} has as patchable attribute "name" but it also has as non patchable attribute "name".
    How should I interpret the API, regarding repetead attributes in both tables of a PATCH operation?

    I tried to search for an answer but I was unable to find one. If you guys could point me to the right direction I would appreciate.

    Thank you in advance.

    Look like this part of document not finished. Or it up to you to define which attributes are patchable and which not. (for example LastModifiedDate shouldn't be pachable).

    The Account Management API is about to be republished for Rel 18.0, I assume in around a week or two. I suggest that you re-examine the issue that you raised here about the (in)completeness of the document, and if you still have a concern reach out to @Mariano Belaunde​, the lead for this API.
    Hope it helps.
