urgent Fixx-API error when adding a comment to an issue.

Adding comments through API somehow seems to mess up the issue internally or perhaps im just doing it wrong :)

Request above the linesep(----) and response below it in the examples.

So far so good i get the issue and its comments (2) i then try to add a new comment:





POST /api/issues/573/comments HTTP/1.1


Accept: application/xml


Content-Type: application/xml


Authorization: Basic <removed>

Content-Length: 52

<comment>


  <text>Test Comment 3</text>


</comment>

</removed>

Still no errors as expected if i now retrieve the comments again i get the following error:

This causes all the comments not to show in the web interface and for older issues I've noticed it clears the description too although I've not been able to fully catch when this happens.

I’m hoping it's an error on my part

Inappropriate?

This does indeed appear to be a bug in the API when the createdAt time is not passed for comments. Sorry about this. I have asked for this to be fixed.

For now, could you ensure that the createdAt attribute is being sent and see if that fixes it?

I’m sorry

Just to clarify. The documentation is correct. The bug is that the createdAt value is not being defaulted to the current time.

I can confirm that manually sending <createdat> works. I'm happy I don't have to scrap that feature :)</createdat>

This has been fixed in 1.9 where the createdAt field is set to the time the comment is posted to the back-end.

I’m happy
