Issue/Introduction

We want to know if, when a project is locked in the application, updates against that specific instance, or for those instances that are from Project's/Investment's sub objects (such as Tasks, Teams etc.), are allowed or not, through REST APIs.

Environment

Version: 16.0.0.

Resolution

When a project is locked, updates/creation through Rest API on the sub object's instances are not allowed. This is to prevent data integrity issues from arising.
