# redmine_contacts_helpdesk 3.0.9 Helpdesk Issue API Local Patch

- Patch set: `redmine_contacts_helpdesk-3.0.9-local-helpdesk-issue-api-20260425T094236Z`
- Created: `2026-04-25T09:42:36Z`
- Purpose: production install manifest for the local `include=helpdesk` issue
  API extension.

## Files To Install

```text
plugins/redmine_contacts_helpdesk/app/views/issues/show.api.rsb
plugins/redmine_contacts_helpdesk/lib/redmine_helpdesk/issue_api_serializer.rb
plugins/redmine_contacts_helpdesk/lib/redmine_helpdesk.rb
plugins/redmine_contacts_helpdesk/LOCAL_CHANGELOG.md
```

## Behavior

`GET /issues/:id.json?include=journals,helpdesk` keeps the normal Redmine issue
API response and adds Helpdesk ticket/contact metadata when the issue is also a
Helpdesk ticket. Ordinary issues must continue to respond successfully.

## Validation

Local checks:

```sh
ruby tests/redmine_contacts_helpdesk/test_issue_api_serializer.rb
ruby -c plugins/redmine_contacts_helpdesk/lib/redmine_helpdesk.rb
ruby -c plugins/redmine_contacts_helpdesk/lib/redmine_helpdesk/issue_api_serializer.rb
ruby -c plugins/redmine_contacts_helpdesk/app/views/issues/show.api.rsb
```
