Editing Drawing Views with API

marcus_schaefermarcus_schaefer Member Posts: 7 PRO

Does anyone know how to modify a view or a sheet in a drawing with the drawings/modify endpoint? I've used this endpoint to add annotations to existing views but haven't been able to modify a view itself. A few things I'd like to do is delete a view or change the scale of a view. The API Guide has examples for annotating, but nothing about editing views. I noticed the schema for this endpoint contains 'sheet' and 'view', and when I construct a payload I get 200s but not changes in the document. Ex.

{    "description": "test",   

"jsonRequests": [       

{        "formatVersion": "2021-01-01",

        "messageName": "onshapeCreateAnnotations",

        "sheets":[

            { 

              "name":"test",

                "index":1,

                "scale":{

                    "numerator":1,

                    "denumerator":25,

                },
            }
        ]

        }

    ]

}
