Update a project

View as MarkdownOpen in Claude

Changes the name and security settings of a root project or subproject the caller can reach. Use it to control media protection and HTTPS requirements; project API tokens are managed separately through Project Tokens. Compatibility API Accounts use their own SID-based update route.

Permissions

With a project API token, the token must have the following scope(s) enabled to make a successful request: Management.

With a Personal access token there are no scopes. The token holder must be an owner or admin of the space, and the request reaches only the projects the holder is enabled for, plus their subprojects.

Learn more about API scopes.

Authentication

AuthorizationBasic

SignalWire Basic Authentication using Project ID and API Token.

The client sends HTTP requests with the Authorization header containing the word Basic followed by a space and a base64-encoded string of project_id:token. The project ID will be used as the username and the API token as the password.

Example:

Authorization: Basic base64(project_id:token)
OR
AuthorizationBasic

Personal access token authentication for space-wide administration.

Send HTTP Basic auth with an empty username and the Personal access token as the password. A Personal access token carries your own authority rather than a project's: it is created from your user menu in the Dashboard, is prefixed pat_, and has no scopes. The holder must be an owner or admin of the space named by the subdomain, and the token acts only on that space.

Example:

Authorization: Basic base64(:pat_...)
