Hi,
since it is possible in the UI, and the API documentation for wbsetclaim also states that it "Creates or updates an entire Statement or Claim", I am wondering how I can create a claim with a reference (wbcreateclaim does not allow adding a reference).
So, my questions are:
1. Does the API allow the creation of a claim with a reference in a single step? And if yes, how?
2. Does pyWikibot allow it? And if yes, how?
Cheers, Denny
Hi Denny,
You are correct that wbsetclaim can create a claim with a reference. You just need to pass the entire JSON serialization of the claim, including the reference. If you are trying to create a new statement, you will need to generate a fresh statement id client-side and include it in the JSON serialization.
Cheers, Antonin
