Change duration of an active session

[emil-cheung]

Problem description
Currently there is no mean to change the duration of an active session. However, there are use cases require extending the duration. A dedicated endpoint is proposed for this operation.

Possible evolution
N/A

Alternative solution
Use PATCH operation to change the duration.

Additional context
Originally, PATCH operation was proposed to change the duration. However, according the further discussion in issue #47 , a dedicated endpoint is preferred since it is straightforward to developers. This new issue is created to reflect the community discussion.

Hi emil, how about discuss here Include support for /PATCH sessions? There will be more history infos.

You are right, it is important to link back to the discussion in issue #47. The course of discussion there reduced the scope of a potential /PATCH operation step by step and ended with the conclusions:

• Duration can't be "patched" but should be an explicit endpoint (this issue here)
• NotificationAuthToken ... discussion postponed until new Event/Notification structure clarified (hopefully including handling of security)

All other points were already postponed earlier, incl. QoSProfile
