Update a project release comment ​

PATCH/api/v2/workspaces/{slug}/projects/{project_id}/releases/{release_id}/comments/{pk}/

Change a comment's body, mark it resolved or unresolved, or move it under another parent comment.

PATCH is partial. Send only the fields you want to change. Changing comment_html sets edited_at to the current time. Changing only is_resolved or parent_id leaves edited_at as it was.

Updating needs edit access to the release, and returns 403 without it. The API doesn't check who wrote the comment, so anyone who can edit the release can update any of its comments.

Path Parameters ​

slug:requiredstring

The workspace slug. It appears in your Plane URLs. In https://app.plane.so/my-team/projects/, the slug is my-team.

project_id:requiredstring

The project the release belongs to. Accepts the project UUID or its bare identifier, for example ENG.

release_id:requiredstring (uuid)

The release the comment is on.

pk:requiredstring (uuid)

The id of the comment to update.

Body Parameters ​

comment_html:optionalstring

The new comment body as HTML. Replaces the stored body and sets edited_at.

is_resolved:optionalboolean

Mark the comment resolved (true) or reopen it (false).

parent_id:optionalstring (uuid)

The comment this one replies to. Send null to make it a top-level comment.

Response shaping ​

fields:optionalstring

Comma-separated list of fields to return. Unrequested keys are omitted from the response, not returned as null, so absent means "not requested" and null means "actually null". id always comes back whether or not you name it.

Pass all for every requestable field. An unknown name is a 400 that lists the valid set and suggests the closest match, so a typo can't silently cost you the saving.

Requestable here: comment_html, comment_id, created_at, created_by_id, edited_at, id, is_hidden, is_resolved, parent_id, release_id, updated_at, updated_by_id.

See Sparse fields.
