Hi Someone who may concern,

     We are working on using REST API to create a new work item. And we need to know the id of this work item after the work item is created, and use it to update our patch commit information.
     However, we noticed there is no ID information in the response xml we got from RTC after creating work item. It only indicated the work item is created successfully.

     We are wondering how can we get that?

      Thanks!

Best Regards,
Jane Zhou

In most cases, when a creation operation (POST) is successful, and you get an HTTP 201 code, the response header "Content-Location" contains the URI or ID of the new resource.
