Goal

We need to update Project Template headers that are missing "ProjectPlanType" in order for Tasks to be created.
We use the following payload:
{
"parts": [
{
"id": "part0",
"path": "/projectTemplates/300000011311293",
"operation": "update",
"payload": {
"ProjectPlanType": "NIWA Project Cost & Revenue Plan"
}
}
]
}

No errors. However, no update is made to the "ProjectPlanType". We tried using "ProjectPlanTypeId" and the result is the same.
{
"parts": [
{
"id": "part0",
"path": "/projectTemplates/300000011311293",
"operation": "update",
"payload": {
"ProjectPlanTypeId": 300000002179168
}
}
]
}

We cannot create Tasks for Project Templates unless a ProjectPlanType is associated with a Project Template. We get the error message below when we try to create Project Template Tasks that don't have a Project Plan Type associated:
{
"detail": "You can't add tasks to the project template M4A Project Template 1 until you associate a project plan type to the project template. (PJF-2236612)",
"o:errorCode": "PJF:::PJF_CANT_ADD_TSKS_PR_TMP_NO_PT",
"o:errorPath": "/parts/0/payload"
}

We need to mass update our Project Templates "ProjectPlanType" via Oracle REST web service in order for Tasks to be created.
