Hi i am using Bash to make post in specific topics.
I was wondering if there was a way to use the api to allow anyone to edit the post?
Here is the bash command:
#!/bin/bash
curl -k -X POST https://discourse.org/posts.json \
-H "Content-Type: multipart/form-data;" \
-F api_key="234234sdfsdf" \
-F api_username="hubot" \
-F topic_id="46605" \
-F raw="Wiki_test_"
I have been trying to figure it out using the API documentations but no luck ;p

-F api_username=“hubot”
-F topic_id=“46605”

-H “Content-Type: multipart/form-data;”
-F api_key=“234234sdfsdf”
-F api_username=“hubot”

curl -k -X PUT https://discourse.org/posts/$post_id/wiki \
-H "Content-Type:multipart/form-data;" \

-F api_username=$API_USERNAME \
-F wiki=true
