# Update Finding

`PUT /api/v1/admin/source-tracker/findings/{finding_id}`

Edit the finding text before approval — the human voice the Findings
section promises (v1.1 U5). Editing an APPROVED finding drops it back to
PENDING: changed public prose must be re-vetted.

## Path parameters

- `finding_id` string, uuid, required

## Request body

- TrackerFindingUpdateRequest
  - `body_md` string, required

## Response `200`

Successful Response

- TrackerFindingReviewResponse
  - `finding_id` string, uuid, required
  - `status` 'pending' | 'approved' | 'rejected', required — Lifecycle of a human-vetted "what changed" finding. Deliberately 3 members (no INCOMPLETE): a finding is templated text a human approves or rejects — a "failed scan" state cannot occur on it.

## Other responses

- `404` — Resource not found
- `422` — Validation Error
