Publish the vertical's descriptor

PUT
/verticals/{verticalId}/descriptor
curl --request PUT \

--header 'Authorization: Bearer <token>' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data '{}'

For the app Grouperly names as the vertical’s publisher (Scoutosia for scouting), with its app secret. The body is the descriptor (docs/specs/vertical-descriptor.schema.json); its id must be the vertical in the URL.

It is validated, planned and, unless dryRun=true, made the next version and the one in use. Sending the descriptor already in use changes nothing, so an app can publish on every deploy.

verticalId
required
string

A vertical this app publishes, e.g. “scouting”

dryRun
boolean

True: validate and plan only; nothing is published

note
string

Up to 500 characters for the version history, e.g. the commit it came from

Media typeapplication/json

A vertical descriptor, format 1 (docs/specs/vertical-descriptor.schema.json), at most 256 KB.
