PUT/groups/{group_id}/pipeline-components/{component_id}

Replace a component's draft body

update_group_pipeline_component
  • pipeline:manage
    A token needs the pipeline:manage scope: Create, update, and delete pipeline definitionsGranted by write_api, write_repository.Every operation this scope unlocks
  • Audited · mutation

    x-gitmoap-audit: {"kind":"audited","arg":"mutation"}

Replaces the component's name, description and draft body with the ones you send. Published versions are untouched: the edit reaches pipelines only once you publish it as a new version, so it cannot break one. Maintainers and above; the new name must not be taken by another component here.

Parameters

Path
  • group_idGroupId (string · uuid)The group's id
  • component_idComponentId (string · uuid)The component's id

  • errorErrorBody

    • messagestringWhat went wrong, for a person. Written to be read, not parsed: match on reason or code.
    • fieldstring or nulloptionalOn a 400 that refused one field's value, the field, as its JSON path: email, items[0].name. Put the message under that input. Absent on every other error.
    • reasonstring or nulloptionalThe specific code, when the error has one: LAST_ORGANIZATION_OWNER, BRANCH_PROTECTED. The message starts with it too. Match on this when it is present, and on code otherwise.
    • required_scopestring or nulloptionalThe scope the access token was missing, on INSUFFICIENT_SCOPE.
    • violationsanyoptionalPresent on the structured-validation errors (PROVIDER_VALIDATION_FAILED per-node, PIPELINE_VALIDATION_FAILED DAG): a JSON array of the offending elements, so a caller can fix every one in a single round-trip. Absent (omitted) on every other error.
