Update Entity

post/extensions/roboledger/{graph_id}/operations/update-entity

Update an entity of the graph's reporting group. Only provided (non-null) fields are updated. Omit entity_id to target the group parent; name a subsidiary's id to edit it. ownership_pct is refused on the group parent (422), and ticker must stay unique in the graph (409).

Idempotency: supply an Idempotency-Key header to make safe retries; replays within 24 hours return the same envelope. Reusing the key with a different body returns HTTP 409 Conflict.

Authentication

Authenticate in any one of these ways — not all of them:

API key in the X-API-Key header.
Bearer token in the Authorization header.
