Description

Updating a time entry:
http://www.redmine.org/projects/redmine/wiki/Rest_TimeEntries#Updating-a-time-entry
results always in a 404

I'm using Redmine 3.4.6.stable and was using:
PUT /time_entries/[id].xml

Other action like:
Creating a time entry
is working.

Also, Delete is not working and I tried it with JSON as a replacement for XML, but with the same response.

Then I removed the extension like this:
/time_entries/[id]
and I got a 422, but the response gives me a full HTML page with:

<p id="errorExplanation">Invalid form authenticity token.</p>

I'm not a Ruby/Rails developer, but in routes.rb I can see:

match '/time_entries/:id', :to => 'timelog#destroy', :via => :delete, :id => /\d+/

This is the only entry for:
/time_entries/:id

so this means that the documentation at:
http://www.redmine.org/projects/redmine/wiki/Rest_TimeEntries#Updating-a-time-entry
is outdated and there is no end point for updating a time entry.
Is this correct?

It works via .json

For example, this worked for me:
/time_entries/1.json

{ method: 'PUT',
  qs: undefined,
  body: 
   { time_entry: { issue_id: '1', hours: 4, spent_on: '2019-01-01' } },
  headers: 
   { 'Content-Type': 'application/json',
     'X-Redmine-API-Key': '95228de814b46d8980447c00591460598990d469' },
  json: true }

XML also works...

/time_entries/1.xml

<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<time_entry>
  <id>1</id>
  <issue_id>1</issue_id>
  <spent_on>2019-02-02</spent_on>
  <hours>9.0</hours>
</time_entry>

You've tested it with:
Redmine 3.4.6.stable
?

Because I'm still getting 404 error when posting to e.g:
/time_entries/1.json
