Deal Comments

Edit a comment on a deal

PATCH/deals/{deal_id}/comments/{id}
comments:writeupdate_deal_commentIdempotent

Changes the comment text or visibility and returns it. Only the user who wrote the comment can edit it, otherwise 403 forbidden. comment_is_public can be changed on a top-level comment only, and is applied to its replies too; on a reply it returns 422 prohibited. A user_id in the body returns 422 missing. Emits deal_comment.updated, no notification or email. Sending the previous values undoes it.

  • idstring (uuid)Required#

    The comment's id.

Query parameters

    Validate and run the call without committing it, returning what the real call would return with meta.dry_run set.
