RSA Version/Condition: 7.2.x,7.1.x
Issue
Review item comments may be updated in the Review through the console without error.
For example, the following Web Service command to add only a comment.
<Review> <ReviewResultName>Review-Result-Name</ReviewResultName> <SignOff>false</SignOff> <ReviewItemChange comments="Adding Only Comment for this Entitlement"> <RevieweeUserId>TestUser</RevieweeUserId> <Entitlement resource="Group" action = "Add" business-source="Perforce"/> </ReviewItemChange> </Review>
Generates the following error response.
412 Precondition Failed <html><head><title>Error</title></head><body> Status=Failure. None of the 1 review components could be updated. Status for Review Item (TestUser-Group)=Failure (State specified should be one of [Maintain, revoke, none]
Cause
Resolution
When this option is set to true, only the comments will be updated for the review items, the state will not get affected (Just like adding comments from UI).
Also, comments will be updated only when the comments being added are not found already as part of the existing review comments.
<Review> <ReviewResultName>value</ReviewResultName> <UpdateCommentsOnly>true<UpdateCommentsOnly> <SignOff>false</SignOff> <ReviewItemChange state="revoke" comments="value"> <RevieweeUserId>value</RevieweeUserId> <Entitlement resource="value" action = "value" business-source="value"/> </ReviewItemChange> </Review>
