Greetings.
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">I’m trying to use the <a href="https://archivesspace.github.io/archivesspace/api/#set-the-parent-position-of-an-archival-object-in-a-tree" class="">Set the parent/position of an Archival Object in a tree</a> API endpoint but I am getting an error
when I supply both the archival object ID and the parent ID in what should be the correct way. The Archival Object is an item-level record and the parent is a series-level record, both under the same Resource.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">The error is:</div>
<div class="">
<div class="">{</div>
<div class=""> "error": "comparison of Integer with nil failed"</div>
<div class="">}</div>
</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Here is some sample Python code that fails:</div>
<div class="">```</div>
<div class="">
<div class="">import json</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">from asnake.client import ASnakeClient</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">asnake_client = ASnakeClient()</div>
<div class="">asnake_client.authorize()</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">parent_post_response = asnake_client.post(</div>
<div class=""> "/repositories/2/archival_objects/96413/parent?parent=96414"</div>
<div class="">)</div>
<div class="">print(json.dumps(parent_post_response.json(), sort_keys=True, indent=4))</div>
</div>
<div class="">```</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">The locally installed ArchivesSpace version that I am testing on is 2.8.1 currently.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Thanks for any help.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Cheers,</div>
<div class="">Tommy</div>
