Issue/Introduction

When Creating To Do via below Rest API code, the "Created By" value is not being populated.

Instead its being created by the API user who ran it.

Here is the rest api  POST:

https://ppm-test.com/ppm/rest/v1/obaTodos

{

    "obaAssociation": 7033196,

    "name": "blah blah blahF",

    "owner": 5002076,

    "dueDate": "2021-10-29T00:00:00",

    "createdBy": "Last Name, First"

}

Environment

Release : 15.9.3

Resolution

The createdby is an audit field and the system handles updating those fields and it's can't be changed. It will always take the ID of the person who created them.
