msmonroe@harmonic-data.com 2018-06-28 19:36 reporter ~0060192	If I try to move the status of a ticket from closed to feedback using the REST API as a developer, I get a 500 error. If I log in as that user, I'm allowed to reopen the ticket. Screen Shot 2018-06-28 at 18.27.59.png (130,623 bytes) Screen Shot 2018-06-28 at 18.27.59.png (130,623 bytes)
