API Merge People
Merge People
The merge people endpoint allows you to combine the person record for up to http://securelb.trackerproducts.com/api/people/mergePeople/{destinationPersonId}
Merging people will take all case, item, task, media, and notes associated with the source person and apply those associations to the destination person. For example, if a source person is a witness in a case, then after merge operation the destination person will now be a witness in a case.
Here are some general notes on doing a people merge:
This should be used with caution.
The merge person action cannot be undone
The source person records will be removed from the system permanently.
You can merge multiple people into a destination person - up to 10 at a time.
You cannot merge a person that is also a user in the system.
Here is an example of using this endpoint:
To start, let's look at a person record that will be our destination person:

So pre merge we have:
Destination Person - Witness in case 2019-1024-03
Source Person1 - Victim in case 2019-1024-01
Source Person2 - Suspect in case 2019-1024-02
Now we will do a merge of our source people into our destination person.
In the url we provide the id of the destination person.
In the body of the post we provide an array of source people ids.
POST http://securelb.trackerproducts.com/api/people/mergePeople/1716172
Now the same call to get cases list for our destination person produces the following:

"personType": {
"id": 2,
"name": "Victim",
