[Bug 1563559] Re: [Api] Adding/Removing a legendSet to an existing dataElement/indicator using PUT

 

Yeah, well the default for our entire API is mergeMode=MERGE (it has
been since day 1), so no.. it will not just replace the object with what
you send.. by default..

You need to use mergeMode=REPLACE for that

I'm sure it could be discussed if that should be the default, but I
think a this point it would be a breaking change.. not something we
really want

Title:
  [Api] Adding/Removing a legendSet to an existing dataElement/indicator
  using PUT

Status in DHIS:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  I'm attempting to add a legendSet to an existing dataElement. While
  the api seems to return updated: 1 it does not actually add the
  legendSet to the object.

  Reproduce add:
  + GET https://play.dhis2.org/dev/api/dataElements/FTRrcoaog83.json?fields=:owner
  + Add part to the payload "legendSet": {"id": "Yf6UHoPkdS6"}
  + PUT the payload back to the server
  + The dataElement is not updated with the new LegendSet

  Reproduce remove:
  + GET https://play.dhis2.org/dev/api/dataElements/qrur9Dvnyt5.json?fields=:owner
  + Remove legendSet part or set to null
  + PUT the payload back to the server
  + LegenSet is still available on the object
