Documentation Discrepancy in "List Report Shares" API Parameters

Buren

Hi Team,

I hope you’re having a great day.

I have a question regarding the List Report Shares API and its parameters. The documentation mentions using sharingInclude=workspace, but it seems to have no effect on the response. Upon reviewing the Java SDK source code, I noticed the parameter include=workspaceShares is used instead, and it works as expected.

Could you confirm if this is a documentation error?

Looking forward to your clarification.

Best regards,

Buren

Hi @Buren

I tested the option with Python code using Smartsheet Python SDK and found it did make a difference.

As shown below, with "include_workspace_shares = True", I got workspace share.

The sample code for Java is as follows;

// Omit pagination parameters

PagedResult<Share> shares = smartsheet.reportResources().shareResources().listShares(

        665829219035012L,        // long reportId

        null,                    // PaginationParameters

        true                     // Boolean includeWorkspaceShares

        );

So, what is misleading is this part.

query Parameters

sharingInclude

string When applicable for the specific object this parameter defines the scope of the share. Possible values are ITEM or WORKSPACE. ITEM is an item-level share (that is, the specific object to which the share applies is shared with the user or group). WORKSPACE is a workspace-level share (that is, the workspace that contains the object to which the share applies is shared with the user or group). Enum: "ITEM" "WORKSPACE"

Hi @jmyzk_cloudsmart_jp

Thank you for your response. I noticed in the Java SDK implementation that the sheets/{{taskSheetId}}/shares endpoint includes a parameter include=workspaceShares. This parameter is not documented but is actually effective. I believe this parameter should be documented.

Additionally, when using cURL to directly call the HTTP endpoint, the parameter sharingInclude=workspace or item, as mentioned in the documentation, has no effect on the response. Furthermore, there is no usage of the sharingInclude field in the Java SDK implementation. I believe this is an error in the documentation, as it seems there’s a mix-up or mistake between sharingInclude and include.

Here is code sample of java sdk code source
