Update Course image in Settings using API #2320

Open vishalgvk opened 4 months ago

vishalgvk commented 4 months ago

Summary: Unable to update image of Course in CourseSettings using API

Steps to reproduce:

  1. PUT request to /api/v1/courses/:courseId/settings with request body being { "image_id": "1" , "image_url": _imageUrl_ , "image": _imageUrl_ }
  2. Postman gives response 200 with old CourseSettings object as response (image isn't being updated)

Please let me know if it's possible to update image or bannerImage of Course using API

I found the solution after multiple trials.

Solution: Send a PUT request to Course (but not CourseSettings) passing only image_id (image_url and image aren't required). In the response, even though the updated data doesn't appear, that's fine. We have to verify the updated image_id by making GET request to CourseSettings (but not Course).

So, this can be considered as a bug in canvas-lms api.
