PATCH /v1/brands/{brand_id}/local-scan-schedules/{schedule_id}

Update a map scan schedule

scope write:locations cost 1 RU idempotent optional

Change the searches, the questions ([] goes back to Maps only), the grid, the centre, the frequency or the alerts; only the fields sent change. Saving resumes a paused schedule. Requires the brand owner on Starter or with an active API subscription: 403 brand_plan_required otherwise.

Path parameters

schedule_id string required

A schedule's id.
brand_id string required

Brand UUID.

Query parameters

dry_run boolean optional

Preview the call without executing it. Runs auth, scope, eligibility and body validation, then returns 200 with a dry_run object reporting the request-unit and credit cost plus a non-consuming quota snapshot. Nothing is debited, reserved, dispatched or mutated. An invalid body still returns 422.

default: false

Header parameters

Idempotency-Key string optional

Optional. A retry with the same key and body within 24 hours replays the first response.
