    <p>I'm working on a piece of code that's using the REST api provided by capsulecrm.com and I'm using python-requests to perform my requests.</p> <p>I tried creating a session object and perform a series of POSTs, the first request returns a 201 but subsequent requests are 302s even when I modify the payload.</p> <pre><code>&gt;&gt;&gt; s = requests.session() &gt;&gt;&gt; s.post("https://dummy.capsulecrm.com/api/party/12345/history", data=json.dumps(payload), headers=headers,auth=auth) &lt;Response [201]&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; s.post("https://dummy.capsulecrm.com/api/party/12345/history", data=json.dumps(payload), headers=headers,auth=auth) &lt;Response [302]&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; s.post("https://dummy.capsulecrm.com/api/party/12345/history", data=json.dumps(payload), headers=headers,auth=auth) &lt;Response [302]&gt; </code></pre> <p>However, if I don't create a session and do this the normal way, it returns 201 correctly like so:</p> <pre><code>&gt;&gt;&gt; requests.post("https://dummy.capsulecrm.com/api/party/12345/history", data=json.dumps(payload), headers=headers,auth=auth) &lt;Response [201]&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; requests.post("https://dummy.capsulecrm.com/api/party/12345/history", data=json.dumps(payload), headers=headers,auth=auth) &lt;Response [201]&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; requests.post("https://dummy.capsulecrm.com/api/party/12345/history", data=json.dumps(payload), headers=headers,auth=auth) &lt;Response [201]&gt; </code></pre> <p>The document for the REST API is here <a href="http://developer.capsulecrm.com/v1/resources/history/" rel="nofollow">http://developer.capsulecrm.com/v1/resources/history/</a> I would love to use sessions so that I can maintain keep-alive and pre-define all the header data, how do get this to work?</p>

    1. COIt seems that rather the first answer is correct; as written in their docs, you need to use `PUT` in order to modify the existing entry.

    2. COCorrect, but what the second example does, as it's supposed to do, is to keep appending more notes to the party.

COThat's really hard to tell what happens without having access to the system, but if I were you, I'd pass the conversation through [Burp Proxy](http://www.portswigger.net/burp/proxy.html) or [WebScarab](https://www.owasp.org/index.php/Webscarab) and compare the requests and responses in both cases. Easily can be their bug as well.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
