Review Request Last Update Resource¶

Provides information on the last update made to a review request.

Clients can periodically poll this to see if any new updates have been made.

typeOne of `review-request`, `diff`, `reply`, `review`	The type of the last update. `review-request` means the last update was an update of the review request’s information. `diff` means a new diff was uploaded. `reply` means a reply was made to an existing review. `review` means a new review was posted.

HTTP GET¶

Returns the last update made to the review request.

This shows the type of update that was made, the user who made the update, and when the update was made. Clients can use this to inform the user that the review request was updated, or automatically update it in the background.

This does not take into account changes to a draft review request, as that’s generally not update information that the owner of the draft is interested in. Only public updates are represented.
