# Set what this workspace permits overrideStanding to do

`PATCH /v1/workspace/standing-override-policy`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.indraft.io`
- URL: `https://api.indraft.io/v1/workspace/standing-override-policy`
- Auth: HTTP bearer

`allowed` is the default and today's behaviour. `confirmed_protected` lets a write override anything except a value a person confirmed, which is what most workspaces mean. `refused` means a write carrying the flag is refused outright rather than quietly downgraded. Reserved to a person: a credential cannot change it, including one with every scope, because a control an agent can switch off is not a control.

## Request body

- object
  - `policy` 'allowed' | 'confirmed_protected' | 'refused', required

## Response `200`

Success

- object
  - `workspace` object, required
    - `name` string, required
    - `displayTimezone` string, required
    - `defaultCurrency` string, required
    - `fiscalYearStartMonth` integer, required
    - `standingOverridePolicy` 'allowed' | 'confirmed_protected' | 'refused', required
  - `requestId` string, required

## Other responses

- `401`: No credential, or one that has been revoked.
- `402`: A product quota is spent, or the subscription is not active.
- `403`: Authenticated, and this capability is not held.
- `409`: A conflict the caller can resolve: a stale expectedVersion, an idempotency key reused for different input, an ambiguous or duplicate identity, or a merge that no longer applies.
- `413`: The body, or a single record inside it, exceeds its bound.
- `422`: The request does not satisfy the schema on this page.
- `429`: Infrastructure protection tripped. This is not a product quota.
- `500`: A defect on our side. The hint says so, and carries an incident id.
- `507`: The workspace is at its storage ceiling.
