- Auth: HTTP bearer
- TypeScript: <https://skmtc.dev/wildmeorg/apis/wildbook-v3-api/docs/api/v3/submissions/:id/rows/put.ts> (a function with typed inputs; its response is checked against the schema)

## Request body

- SubmissionApiRows
  - `rows` SubmissionApiRow[], required
    - `clientRowId` string, required
    - `fields` object, required: Normalized bulk-import field names. Actual supported fields, required values and types are supplied by capabilities. Nulls and unknown fields are rejected in this contract.

    - `batchId` string
  - `processing` SubmissionApiProcessing, required: Omit the entire processing object to select detect-and-identify. Explicit import-only skips detection and identification. When provided, mode is required.

  - `expiresAt` string, date-time, required
  - `importTaskId` string, uuid

    - `code` string, required
    - `message` string, required
    - `clientRowId` string
    - `rowIndex` integer

    - `reason` string: Present on INVALID_VALUE issues: why the value was rejected. One of REQUIRED, REQUIRES_FIELD, UNPARSEABLE, OUT_OF_RANGE, FUTURE_DATE, NOT_CONFIGURED, INVALID. New reasons may be added; treat an unknown reason as INVALID.
    - `limit` number
  - `derivatives` SubmissionApiPhase
    - `state` 'pending' | 'running' | 'not_started' | 'dispatching' | 'dispatched' | 'complete' | 'failed' | 'skipped' | 'unknown', required: Indexing unknown means submitted to the existing async indexing queue; no completion acknowledgment is available. Derivatives unknown requires operator reconciliation.
