Change ownership of Qlik Sense object using QRS API

[sanket8397]

Hi,

How to change owner of sheet/story using QRS API ?

Thank you.

At a high level the flow would be:

• GET /qrs/app/object/{id}
• Adjust the owner.id to a new user's GUID. Optional: adjust the userId, userDirectory, and name attributes in the owner element. 
• PUT /qrs/app/object/{id}

Example:

GET /qrs/app/object/5d05292b-f5dc-4cf7-9aea-0a05f51a602d

@Levi_Turner  ,  Thank you for solution. It worked like a charm.

When I tried changing sheet name with same method by changing "name" in JSON, changes were successfully reflected in QMC. But on hub in original application , I am seeing old sheet name only.

Can you please suggest.
