Comments

You should provide the request with all mandatory fields for a person, not only the fields you want to update. If the syncID already exists in itslearning, the person with the syncId will be updated instead.

For each <identifier> in the request you will get a status in the <statusinfoSet><status> in the response. The order of the <statusInfoset><status> corresponds to the the order of the <identifier> in the request.
