Correct a delivery

Preview· P9
PATCH
/deliveries/{delivery_id}

Changes a waiting delivery: who it's for, where it's kept, what it is. A new recipient gets a new collection code and is told, unless notify_recipient is false. Fires delivery.updated. A delivery that is no longer waiting returns invalid_state.

Scope: deliveries:write · Plan: Pro and Enterprise in live mode; every plan in test mode.

Authorization

Path Parameters

delivery_id*string

The delivery's ID.

Match^delivery_[0-7][0-9a-hjkmnp-tv-z]{25}$
Example"delivery_01m4x0bj50e43vcf8bz0ar7qhp"

Header Parameters

Idempotency-Key*string

A UUID you generate for this operation. If you retry with the same key within 24 hours, Agoo returns the original response instead of acting twice. While the first request is still running, a retry returns conflict. Reusing a key with a different request returns idempotency_key_reused. Responses with rate_limited, internal_error or unavailable aren't stored, so retry those with the same key.
