Finding

Creating a role template returned 400 on every save. RoleTemplateCreateUpdate.RoleTemplateId was marked required, so System.Text.Json rejected the body before PostRoleTemplate ran. The id is database-generated and the create form has none: qtable.js builds the body from an empty object, and JSON.stringify drops the undefined property. Editing was unaffected, because the selected row carries an id.

Introduced by 5a47b06f, a bulk sweep that added required across models. It reads as a harmless annotation but changes wire semantics.

Not the CSRF bug from #319 despite the shared status code: create already sends the token through viperFetch.

Change

RoleTemplateId becomes int?, restoring the convention RoleCreateUpdate, PermissionCreateUpdate, LevelCreateUpdate, and CompetencyAddUpdate already follow. PostRoleTemplate never reads it, and PutRoleTemplate's route-vs-body guard still rejects a null id, with a test pinning that.

Adds a CLAUDE.md rule so the next mechanical required sweep does not reintroduce it.

Verification

Browser-verified both ways against a local build: required returns 400, int? returns 201. Create, list, and delete round-tripped cleanly.

8 tests. The wire-contract ones matter most, since controller tests build the model in C# and never exercise deserialization, so they pass against a broken model. SMOKETEST-RAPS-Role-Templates.md gains create/edit/delete coverage, which it previously lacked. That gap is how this shipped unnoticed.

Follow-ups

  • CMSBlockAddEdit.ContentBlockId and CTS RoleDto.RoleId have the same shape, working only because their clients send 0. Domain.DomainId and Epa.EpaId too, but those are EF entities and need a binding DTO rather than int?.
  • The 201's Location header is wrong: PostRoleTemplate passes the route value as id while the route names it roleTemplateId. Nothing consumes it. RolesController:220 matches.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The request model now permits omitted role-template IDs. New tests verify JSON binding, creation, matching-ID updates, rejection of updates without IDs, and null-description normalization with in-memory SQLite persistence.

Changes

Role template CRUD behavior

Layer / File(s) Summary
Nullable ID binding contract
web/Areas/RAPS/Models/RoleTemplateCreateUpdate.cs, test/RAPS/RoleTemplateCreateUpdateTests.cs, CLAUDE.md
RoleTemplateId is nullable. Binding tests verify omitted create IDs and preserved update IDs with web-compatible serializer options. The project guidance documents this model requirement.
Controller create and update behavior
test/RAPS/RoleTemplateCrudTests.cs
SQLite-backed tests verify creation without an ID, null-description normalization, successful matching-ID updates, and bad requests when update bodies omit the ID.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 81af1

The change allows role-template creation without a client-supplied ID and restores successful saves; the remaining merge-readiness risk is bounded to owner awareness that update coverage does not verify persisted changes.

Pull request overview

This PR fixes RAPS role template creation failing at JSON model binding by allowing the create/update DTO to omit the database-generated primary key, restoring expected “server assigns id” semantics on create requests.

Changes:

  • Make RoleTemplateCreateUpdate.RoleTemplateId nullable (int?) so POST bodies without roleTemplateId deserialize successfully.
  • Add unit coverage for both the JSON wire contract (deserialization) and controller CRUD behavior for POST/PUT with/without body ids.

Reviewed changes

Copilot reviewed 3 out of 3 changed files in this pull request and generated no comments.

File Description
web/Areas/RAPS/Models/RoleTemplateCreateUpdate.cs Makes RoleTemplateId nullable so create bodies can omit the id without binding failures.
test/RAPS/RoleTemplateCrudTests.cs Adds CRUD-focused tests to ensure POST works without an id and PUT enforces route/body id agreement.
test/RAPS/RoleTemplateCreateUpdateTests.cs Adds deserialization (“wire contract”) tests to pin the JSON body shapes that must bind.

RoleTemplateId was marked required, so System.Text.Json rejected the
create body before PostRoleTemplate ran: the id is database-generated,
the form has none yet, and JSON.stringify drops the undefined property.
Every "Add Role Template" save returned 400. Editing was unaffected,
because the selected row carries an id.

Nullable rather than a plain int so under-posting stays visible to the
analyzer, and to match the other create/update models in the codebase;
PutRoleTemplate's route-vs-body guard rejects a null id.
The RAPS role template create broke this way: System.Text.Json rejects a
body that omits a required property, so a create form with no id yet
gets a 400 before the action runs. Four other endpoints are one client
edit away from the same failure, saved only by a hardcoded 0.
