/api/applicants/ID/trackers/ID
HEAD, GET
Use the HEAD
verb to test if the applicant in question has this tracker. A request with the GET
verb returns some additional information about the tracker association (date assigned etc.).
Note that this will not return the tracker itself, but rather represents the relationships between the applicant and the tracker. Follow the tracker URI in the response to retrieve further information about the tracker in question.
Syntax

Response headers
Content-Type: application/json Content-Length: 1234
Response codes

Response example
{ "assigned": "2014-06-29T18:11:15+00:00", "tracker": "/api/applicants/trackers/1" }
PUT
Set a tracker to the applicant in question. This requires that the tracker already exists. Use POST
/api/applicants/trackers to create a tracker first, then this API call will allow you to PUT
the tracker (identified by it's code) to any number of applicants.
In other words, this will not create a new tracker, but create a relationship (association) between an existing tracker and an applicant.
NB! The body of the request is left empty
