Fix guest-systems create/update API payload (connected_object) - #1356
Merged
Conversation
The "Create an entry" and "Update an entry" examples for
C__CATG__GUEST_SYSTEMS documented the data payload as
{ "object": <id> }, which i-doit rejects with
"Property 'object' is unknown." (-32603 validation error).
The category property is connected_object (an object browser),
so the payload must be { "connected_object": [<id>] }. Verified
against i-doit 38 via cmdb.category.save for both create and update.
Fixes #1333

Problem
Issue #1333. The Guest systems category (
C__CATG__GUEST_SYSTEMS) API examples for Create an entry and Update an entry documented the data payload as"data": { "object": <id> }. i-doit rejects this with:Fix
The category's connect property is
connected_object(an object browser), so the payload must be"data": { "connected_object": [<id>] }. Corrected in both the Create and Update examples, in the English and German articles.Verification
Reproduced against i-doit 38 with
cmdb.category.saveonC__CATG__GUEST_SYSTEMS:data: { "object": <id> }→-32603 … Property 'object' is unknown.(the reported error)data: { "connected_object": [<id>] }→success: true, "Category entry successfully saved";cmdb.category.readreturns the linkedconnected_object.Same result for both create and update. The params-level
object(the owning host) is unchanged; only the value insidedatawas wrong.Files
