Description

After trying to rename a parameter from "rudder_file_edit_footer" to "my_param" with API the result is:

$ curl -k -H "X-API-Token: PojCJDhajkGqVx1TTmiZKNFZORKOYc8X" -X POST https://localhost/rudder/api/2/parameters/rudder_file_edit_footer?prettify=true -d "id=my_param" 

{
  "action": "updateParameter",
  "id": "rudder_file_edit_footer",
  "result": "success",
  "data": {
    "parameters": [
      {
        "id": "rudder_file_edit_footer",
        "value": "### Edited by Rudder ###",
        "description": "Default inform message put in footer of managed files by Rudder",
        "overridable": false
      }
    ]
  }
}

The id has not changed.

If we try to do it manually by the WebUI, this is not possible since the id textbox is not editable. On the Eventlogs, policy generations are logged but not any modification.

I suppose this action with API should return an error, not a success.
