REST API: Edit Q&A Answer

How can I edit a given Q&A answer using the REST API?

 

I tried to edit a Q&A Answer via REST API v1 by issuing the following POST request:

POST /restapi/vc/messages/id/197500/edit?restapi.session_key=XXXXX.&restapi.response_style=view&restapi.format_detail=full_list_element HTTP/1.1
Host: stage-community.XXX.ch
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=utf-8
message.author=id%2FXXXX&message.body=Hello&message.subject=&qanda.is_answer=true&credentials.identity_user=id%2FXXXX

 Which results in a API error:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes"?>
<response status="error">
  <error code="100">
    <message>
message: XXXX hat keinen Zugriff zum Bearbeiten dieser Nachricht
    </message>
  </error>
</response>

 

Issueing the same POST request without the "qanda.is_answer=true" works.
