Details

• This function is not protected and therefore available to Addons, unlike C_ReportSystem.InitiateReportPlayer and C_ReportSystem.SendReportPlayer
• This reporting restriction was added because AddOn BadBoy allegedly sent out a number of false positives.
• Triggers OPEN_REPORT_PLAYER once the window is open

Example

• Opens the spam report dialog for the current target.

/run C_ReportSystem.OpenReportPlayerDialog(PLAYER_REPORT_TYPE_SPAM, UnitName("target"), PlayerLocation:CreateFromUnit("target"))
