# Update Public Repo Flags

`PATCH /admin/repos/{repo_id}`

Set the curation / auto-sync flags on a public repo.

Shares ``repo_flags.apply_flags`` with ``PATCH /repos/{id}/managed`` so the
"curating a repo turns auto-sync on" rule has one implementation.

## Path parameters

- `repo_id` string, required

## Request body

- AdminFlagsRequest — Partial update. ``None`` leaves a flag alone rather than clearing it.
  - `repowise_managed` boolean, nullable
  - `auto_sync_enabled` boolean, nullable
