<P> <FONT SIZE=2>I have a bugid and I would like to</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>Resolved/FIXED this bug with an http </FONT>
<BR> <FONT SIZE=2>request. I tried to call process_bug.cgi but it</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>requires too much </FONT>
<BR> <FONT SIZE=2>parameters (for example the summary that I don't</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>have access to).</FONT>
<BR> <FONT SIZE=2>Is there easier way to do that?</FONT>
<BR> <FONT SIZE=2> </FONT>
</P>
<P>
<BR> <FONT SIZE=2>why?</FONT>
<BR> <FONT SIZE=2>ask assignee or someone or admin to give you that priv,</FONT>
<BR> <FONT SIZE=2>then just use show_bug.cgi.</FONT>
<BR> <FONT SIZE=2> </FONT>
</P>
<P> <FONT SIZE=2>Presumably Vianney is looking for a way to programmatically</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>resolve bugs.</FONT>
<BR>
<BR>
</P>
<P> <FONT SIZE=2>anyway this isn't a support place, see</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2><A HREF="http://www.bugzilla.org/support/" TARGET="_blank">http://www.bugzilla.org/support/</A></FONT>
<BR> <FONT SIZE=2> </FONT>
</P>
<P> <FONT SIZE=2>Perhaps, although if it's a question about programmatic access</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>to Bugzilla's APIs, it might be considered something of a development</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>question, even if it's not about the development of Bugzilla proper.</FONT>
<BR>
<BR> <FONT SIZE=2>In any case, it isn't trivial, since process_bug.cgi expects</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>requesters to submit many fields of information about the bug; it isn't</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>satisfied to be given merely the information being changed. The change</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>multiple bugs form works around this by submitting a special "is not</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>being changed" value for fields not being modified. You may be able to</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>do the same.</FONT>
