Fields

expectedRevisioninteger
The record's current revision, from the last time you read it. If someone changed the record since, the request is refused with a conflict so you can reload and check before trying again.
0 to 9007199254740991
idempotencyKeystringRequired
Any unique text you generate once per intended change, so a retried request only happens once. Send it as the Idempotency-Key header instead if you prefer; if you send both they must match.
