             Summary: Update REST endpoints to support eventually consistent UI updates
                 Key: METRON-1771
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/METRON-1771
             Project: Metron
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Ryan Merriman


Currently the REST endpoints that perform document updates either return true/false or nothing.  This puts the responsibility of retrieving the updated state of the object on the client in a separate call or optimistically applying the changes and reverting when an update fails.  This can be problematic if a client attempts to get the current state immediately after an update and the change isn't visible yet in the back end.

Ideally they should return the updated state of the object, eliminating the need to look up the updated state in a separate call.
