Deals

Publish a deal

POST/deals/{id}/actions/publish
deals:writepublish_dealIdempotent

Moves a deal from ready_to_publish to published, which makes it visible to the investors its visibility rules allow, and returns it. Publishing a deal that is already published returns it unchanged and emits no event. A deal in any other status returns 409 invalid_state with current_state and allowed_states in its details. Emits deal.published and sends no email. POST /deals/{id}/actions/unpublish undoes it.

Path parameters

  • idstring (uuid)Required#

    The deal's id, a uuid. An unknown id, or a deal the token can't see, returns 404.

Query parameters

  • dry_runboolean#

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

Headers

  • Idempotency-Keystring#

    Makes a retry safe. Send a new UUID for each new request and reuse it only to retry that request; the first response is replayed for 24 hours.
