​
Authorization
string
header
required

Bearer authentication using the project Secret Key (prefixed with sk_, or test_sk_ for sandbox). All v4 public endpoints require the Secret Key — see Authentication. Never expose the Secret Key in client-side code.

Path Parameters

string
required

Experiment identifier.

Maximum string length: 256
Pattern: ^[a-zA-Z0-9._-]+$

Body

Response

Updated experiment with new status.

Experiment identifier (server-generated UID).

​

Canonical API path.

​
