Changing a reward value

In some scenarios, an organisation may wish to change the value of a reward after a Quest has already started (i.e. after the Quest has originally been 'stashed').

This can be achieved using the restash command in the target Issue, specifying a new reward_value to provide an updated value for the Quest:

@quest-bot restash {reward_value}

Note there is no currency symbol used in the above command. For now, all integer values are taken as USD by default.

If this is successful you will see a message like:

The loot on Quest #{issue_number} has been restashed by @{organisation}.

💰 The loot available is now ${new_reward_value}.

We do not recommend restashing a Quest with a lower reward value than originally specified, since some developers may already have embarked. Instead, an organisation should mainly use restash to increase the value of Quests in cases where not enough developers are embarking, or to attract more experienced developers.

Note that this feature is not available via the Admin dashboard.
