Replacing the whole config to fix one word puts every other node in the request too, so a small fix carries the risk of a large one. This endpoint changes only what you name.

Operations — each item of ops is {"op": "<name>", ...}:

Scope	Ops
Flow inputs	`set_input`, `remove_input`
Nodes	`add_node`, `replace_node`, `update_node`, `remove_node`
One binding / port	`set_node_input`, `remove_node_input`, `set_node_output`, `remove_node_output`
Flow output	`set_output`, `set_output_field`, `remove_output_field`

update_node merges patch into the node, and merges patch.data one level deeper — so patching one field of data leaves the rest of the node alone. Lists are replaced wholesale; use the single-entry ops above to touch one binding or port.

The batch is atomic: if any op fails, nothing is written.

validate_only: true applies and validates the batch without saving, and returns the config it would produce with flow: null. Omit internal_version and the ops are applied to the row under a lock, so a fix to one node does not lose a race with a change to another.

Headers

x-apikey

string

required

API Key for authentication

Path Parameters

flow_id

string

required

Flow identifier, e.g. fl_ab12cd34

Body

application/json

A small, ordered batch of targeted edits, applied atomically: if any op fails, nothing is written. Op names: set_input, remove_input, add_node, replace_node, update_node, remove_node, set_node_input, remove_node_input, set_node_output, remove_node_output, set_output, set_output_field, remove_output_field.

ops

Ops · object[]

required

Operations, applied in order. Each is {"op": "<name>", ...}.

internal_version

string | null

Optional. When set, the edit is refused if the flow changed since you read it. Omit it and the ops are applied to whatever is current.

validate_only

boolean

default:false

Apply and validate without saving; the response carries the config the batch would produce.

Response

The saved flow and the resulting config

valid

boolean

required

config

Config · object

required

errors

string[]

Why the resulting config would be rejected. Only ever non-empty under validate_only.

flow

FlowDetail · object | null

A flow plus the pieces needed to edit it. config is the graph, ui is editor-only metadata the runtime ignores, and internal_version is the concurrency token you send back on a write.
