REST API added resource won't show on standalone client.

 Hi

I have a question about design manager (Rhapsody) 4.0.x
I'm using REST API added a SysMl block into an existed model of RDM.

What I did is I first added a block into the project area and then updated its own package by adding the new block artifact as a new ref element of  the package. By doing this, the target package is referring to the newly added block in my understanding.So from the web client, I can see the new block is shown under the package.

Next, I launch Rhapsody, hoping to open the updated model from RDM could also show the new added block.
Unfortunately, the block created via REST API is not showing in standalone client for some reason.

Besides, when I trying to modify the same model from standalone client(Rhapsody), error " xxx Package is locked from different context" would pop up.

Does it mean the model is locked when I calling REST API? Actually I didn't put and parameters related to "lock" when performing the update.

Can anyone explain to me 
1. what's the right steps to add a model element under a required, existed element in DM to make the newly added element as the member of an existed element?

2. how to unlock the element after performing REST API?

3. why REST API added resource couldn't be reflected on standalone client?

Probably the way I'm asking questions is not properly, any tips from you would be highly appreciated

Thanks
