API Administrator Update Error

Colin McClure

The error is actually a lack of an error. It would appear that the API doesn't allow you to update constituents flagged as Admins, much like you aren't allowed to update Admins with a Group Assignment Upload. However, when you send info to CreateOrUpdate on an Admin record, it returns success and shows in Convio that the record was last updated by the API, but the update never actually happens. There should be an error code that indicates the record attempted was an Admin record and cannot be modified.

Actually, what I'd really like is the ability for the API and Group Assignment Loads etc. to be able to update Admins.
