Hi Erik and Christian,
Thanks so much for your answers.
Yes indeed what I was looking for was to use the "submit_as" option.
Initially I tried it with the draft.update function. But from my
experiments it looks like it has no effect there, either my first option my
using "submitter" or "submit_as".
However I managed to get it to work specifying it on the creation, as
pointed out on the bit of documentation brought up by Erik.
So just to make it clearer for other people, use the "submit_as" option
during the creation of the review, not when modifying the draft:
# Create the review
review_request = root.get_review_requests().create(repository=repository,
submit_as='real_user1')
Further down you would change the reviewers this way:
draft = review_request.get_draft()
draft = draft.update(
summary='API tutorial request',
description='This request was created in the API tutorial.',
target_people='real_user2')
Thanks so much!
