Editing PersonID (Ixxxx) in grampsweb?

[Gramps 5.2.2 via Gramps Web API 2.3.1/Gramps Web Frontend 24.7.0]

recently “migrated” from stand-alone Gramps 5.2.2 to (self-hosted/secured) grampsweb for the sake of remote access.

Whereas I am able to modify an individuals ID in the standalone-version I seem to have missed that feature in grampsweb.
Anyone able to point me in the right direction?

Hi, you’re right, it’s currently not possible yet - that is, it’s supported by Gramps Web API, but there is no UI implemention to change it.

aww shoot - that wasn’t the answer I’ve been looking for, but thanks!
I’ll guess I somehow figure it out for my case.

If you are comfortable with Python, you could use this library: GitHub - DavidMStraub/gramps-web-api-client: A simple Python client to interact with a Gramps Web API instance

In principle, it should be as simple as

api.update_person("person_handle", {"gramps_id": "new_person_gramps_id")
