Redmine

Redmine does not currently provide REST API support for boards and forum messages.

This patch adds REST API support for the following forum-related resources:

• Boards
• Topics
• Replies
• Direct access to messages by ID

Boards:

A board corresponds to a forum in a project and contains discussion topics. A project can have multiple boards.

• GET /projects/:project_id/boards.{xml,json}
• POST /projects/:project_id/boards.{xml,json}
• GET /boards/:id.{xml,json}
• PUT/PATCH /boards/:id.{xml,json}
• DELETE /boards/:id.{xml,json}

Topics and replies:

A topic is the initial message in a forum discussion, while replies are messages posted in response to that topic. A topic may have multiple replies.

• GET /boards/:board_id/topics.{xml,json}
• POST /boards/:board_id/topics.{xml,json}
• GET /messages/:topic_id/replies.{xml,json}
• POST /messages/:topic_id/replies.{xml,json}

Messages:

The message API provides direct access to individual topics and replies by ID. It works for both resource types because they are stored as Message records.

• GET /messages/:id.{xml,json}
• PUT/PATCH /messages/:id.{xml,json}
• DELETE /messages/:id.{xml,json}
