Prerequisites

Why Update Requests?

At some point in time, API providers will change the contract of a request. For example, maybe a component in the request or its response needs to be updated. When this happens we should also update the Stoobly request.

Updating Requests

Before updating a request, it is recommended to create a in case changes need to be reverted.

There are three main strategies to update request(s):

Editing

Replaying

Overwriting

Persisting Changes

Reverting Changes

In case you update a request with unintended consequences, you can reset it to the last snapshot state. For more information see our documentation on the snapshots feature:

Command

stoobly-agent request reset

Options

$ stoobly-agent request reset --help

Usage: stoobly-agent request reset [OPTIONS] REQUEST_KEY

  Reset a request to its snapshot state

Options:
  --force     Toggles whether resources are hard deleted.
  -h, --help  Show this message and exit.
