PATCH /v1/brands/{brand_id}/outreach/citations/{citation_id}

Set a cited page's contact

scope write:outreach cost 1 RU idempotent optional

Set a cited page's primary contact by hand: the author's name, email or both. The contact is created, or found by its email, and linked to the page as its primary contact. Requires the editor role on the brand and the brand owner on Starter or with an active API subscription.

Path parameters

  • citation_id string required

    The cited page's id, as GET /v1/brands/{brand_id}/citations lists it.

  • 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

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