Mark series as default
Deprecated. Use PUT /v1/companies/{company_id}/series/{series_id}/default, which behaves identically. Marking a series as the default is idempotent, so the canonical form is a PUT.
Marks an invoice series as the default one for its document type.
- One per type: only one series can be the default per company and document type; the previous default is automatically unmarked.
- Must be active: an inactive series cannot be marked as default.
Retires on 9 December 2026. See the migration guide for what moved where and what changes when you switch.
Request
- Base URL: https://app.beel.es/api
- URL: https://app.beel.es/api/v1/configuration/series/{series_id}/default
- Auth: HTTP bearer
Path parameters
Universally Unique Identifier (UUID v4)
Series ID to mark as default
Headers
Idempotency key to prevent duplicates in sensitive operations.
- Any unique client-generated string (e.g. an order id). A UUID also works but is not required
- Allowed characters: letters, digits, _ and - (max 255 chars)
- Retrying with the same key replays the first response when it was a success (2xx) or a server error (5xx): same status and body, plus the header Idempotency-Replay: true. After a 5xx, check whether the operation took effect before retrying with a new key
- A 4xx is not stored: the key is released, so the corrected request can reuse it
- Stored responses expire 24 hours after processing
The key is scoped per user and environment, and bound to the request body, so retrying after a network timeout replays the stored response instead of repeating the operation.
| Status | Code | When |
|---|---|---|
| 400 | INVALID_IDEMPOTENCY_KEY | The key breaks the format rules above. |
| 409 | IDEMPOTENCY_KEY_PROCESSING | The first request is still in flight. Wait for the Retry-After seconds (2) and retry with the same key. |
| 409 | IDEMPOTENCY_KEY_MISMATCH | The key was already used with a different body. Use a new key. |
