Getting item lock status in activities REST API endpoint
I am using the activities
REST API endpoint (https://rest.jamasoftware.com/#endpoint_activities) with the date
parameter to determine whether a local on-disk cache of a Jama project is still up to date with the Jama database.
This works well for "normal" item changes, but I now noticed that this API call doesn't count a changed lock status (https://rest.jamasoftware.com/#operation_getLock) as an activity, at least not by default.
Is there a way to still take the lock status into account? The documentation of the endpoint is lacking some information, but using the info in https://github.com/systelab/jama-api/blob/master/docs/ActivitiesApi.md#parameters, it doesn't look possible.
Any other suggestions?

Hi Colin,
I've confirmed that a change in lock status is not included in the data captured by the Activities endpoint in the REST API currently. That said, if other users have determined a way to take the lock status into account, I hope they weigh in here!
