Switch a standby's live mirror

curl -X PATCH https://api.subscriby.net/v1/projects/$PROJECT_ID/resources/$RESOURCE_ID/standby \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $SUBSCRIBY_TOKEN" \
  -H "Idempotency-Key: $(uuidgen)" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"mirror": true}'

Switches the live mirror on or off: when on, every post made in the channel is copied into the standby as it is made. Only a channel can be mirrored, and switching on needs the Growth plan. Answers 200 with the standby.

Auth: HTTP bearer

Path parameters

The project, resolved by the route binder.

resourcestring uuid required

Headers

Idempotency-Keystring uuid required

A key unique to this operation, such as a fresh UUID. The same key replays the original 2xx response for 24 hours (with Idempotent-Replay: true), so a retry after a timeout never repeats the write; the same key with a different body is refused with 409.

Request body

mirrorboolean required

Whether every post made in the channel is copied into the standby as it is made. Only a channel can be mirrored, and switching on needs the Growth plan.

Response

200 with the standby, updated.
