Subscribing user for specific board.

Suchith ,

You are looking at the right API document.

Can you share the error to see what type of error you are getting.

Also make sure you are using post call for using subscription API. Subscription API only be accessible through post call method.

Hi Prashant,

{
"response": {
"status": "error",
"error": {
"code": 511,
"message": "A required query string argument is missing."
}
}
}

I dont see any required parameter on the API documentation. Please let me know what required parameter we need to pass.

Thanks

Suchith,

As mentioned in the document "subscription.type"  is required for API.

Your API will be like below:

Parshant  Thanks.

The board/subscription API documentation provides info only for global and self subscription. Is it possible to pick user and subscribe them for specific board.

You would need to switch context to that user and the issue a "/users/self" API call like to subscribe that user, e.g.

<#assign result = rest("/${target}/id/${id}/subscriptions/users/self/add?subscription.type=email") />

Is it possible to perform this API call without switching context. Since we are planning to automate this process for some set of boards. 

Thanks,
