I am trying to use the observation update API.

https://api.inaturalist.org/v1/docs/#!/Observations/put_observations_id

The documentation only includes a limited number of field names in the example JSON body.

Looking at the iNaturalist iOS app source, it looks like I can work with:

species_guess - String
description - String
place_guess - String - name of the place as found by geo-referencing or user specification.
latitude - Double
longitude - Double
positionalAccuracy - Integer - metres
taxonId - Integer
iconicTaxonID - Integer
idPlease - Boolean
uuid - String
captive - Boolean
ownersIdentificationFromVision - Boolean
observed-on-string - String matching example pattern "Tue Oct 15 2019 17:03:31 GMT+1100 (GMT+11)"

Are there any others? Is there an exhaustive list of the allowable properties that will be recognised?

Thanks

FWIW, this is something we're working on for v2 of the API (still in very, very early alpha)

kueda mentioned this issue

Document request schemas for POST /v2/observations and PUT /v2/observations/:uuid #332
