Modify DiscussionPost Owner

The API allows you to impersonate another user during the API call. You can add a header to the request called "CallOptions" and set the value to ImpersonateUser=<userName> 

This will perform the API on behalf of the user you entered. You must be an administrator and superuser to be able to impersonate.

Last note: I suggest to set the "Via" field of the discussion post in such situations (i.e. Via="Integration"). The string you put into the via field will appear under the post so users know this was an automatically generated message rather than actually posted by that user.

Great! Thanks

Is it the user name (Text) or the /User/ID (Object Reference)?

I am still not getting it.  My POST headers are:

POST /v2.0/services/bulk/Execute HTTP/1.1
Host: api2.clarizen.com
Accept: */*
Authorization: Session #######-####-####-####-c90a7071f185_23520385
CallOptions: ImpersonateUser=$$$$$$$
Content-Length: 256
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded

I have tried:

CallOptions: ImpersonateUser=/User/#####

CallOptions: ImpersonateUser=username

CallOptions: ImpersonateUser=email address

Any ideas?

Can you try the userId without "/user/"?

No luck with

CallOptions: ImpersonateUser=801fad5e-d811-4afc-9990-13de2b3b2118


Where are the API call options documented?

Seems like a bug on our side. I'll promote internally

Eyal,

Has anything turned up regarding this problem?

A fix will be provided in our next deployment (I believe this coming Sunday)
