    Hi Irek,

    This happens when there are any conflicting edits made by another user between the REST GET request and PUT request.

    To resolve this error, you can use GET/PUT calls:

    a. Get the latest incident data using the REST GET endpoint
    b. Make your changes to the retuned data
    c. Invoke REST PUT with modified incident data

    Thanks
