Overview

We recommend using the newer version of this request PwsSaveProjectTaskTypes.

This web service inserts or updates a single project task type based on a detailed project task type structure (PwsProjectTaskTypeDetail). The service returns the identity (PwsProjectTaskTypeRef) of the project task type that has been inserted or updated.

Rate Limiting

In order to protect our servers from inadvertent service overuse or intentional attack, and to fairly distribute services to all our customers, we have implemented a rate limiting algorithm. When fully deployed, this new algorithm will cause services to either succeed with new warnings or fail with new errors when services are consumed at too high a rate. Programs that consume Projector services should be enhanced to handle rate limiting errors so that they can continue functioning properly. For more information please visit: Projector Rate Limiting Behavior.

Request Elements

Element	Data Type	Required?	Default	Description	Sample Data
RequestId	Int32	No		Click here for more information.
SessionTicket	String	Yes		Click here for more information.
AllowedProjectRateTypesClearFlag	Boolean	No	false	If set to 'true', non-default allowed project rate types are cleared. Allowed project rate types supplied in PwsProjectTaskTypeDetail are ignored.	true
EngagementTimestamp	String	deprecated
ProjectIdentity	PwsProjectRef	Yes		The identity of the project for the project task type. Click here for more information.
ProjectTaskType	PwsProjectTaskTypeDetail	Yes		The complete set of information for project task type. Click here for more information.
StealLockFlag	Boolean	deprecated
LocksToSteal	PwsEntityLockSummary[1.100]	No		The detailed information of the locks that are to be stolen. If not specified, the request will fail if any requested locks are already held. If specified, the information supplied must exactly match the current state of existing locks or the attempt to steal the existing locks will fail. Typically, this service is invoked with LocksToSteal empty or null. If there are existing locks, they will be returned in the LockHolders member of PwsFault. This data can then be sent, as is, back to the server in a second invocation of this service, as LocksToSteal, if the caller desires to steal the locks.
ProjectorLockSetId	Int32	No		A projector lock set id is an identifier for a group of one or more locks held as a unit.
RateTaskTimestamp	String	No		This is an optimistic locking timestamp that, if provided on update request, will cause the request to fail when the timestamp stored in the database does not match the provided value.
