Upsert an endpoint group
/endpoint-groupsCreates a server-identified group or replaces the complete customer document with If-Match. Provider truth remains authoritative; changes use the atomic group engine and advance each affected group once. BEST_EFFORT is the default. Inspect status and errors on HTTP 200. Retained terminal responses replay for 24 hours after provider attempts.
Required scope
group:manageHeader parameters
- Idempotency-Key
stringRequired Client-chosen key that makes a non-idempotent request retry-safe, following draft-ietf-httpapi-idempotency-key-header. A committed response is stored for 24 hours and replayed for the same principal, operation, key and payload. Missing key returns 400 IDEMPOTENCY_KEY_REQUIRED, a key longer than 255 characters returns 400 IDEMPOTENCY_KEY_INVALID, the same key with a different payload returns 422, and the same key while the first request is still in flight returns 409. Requests rolled back before external provider attempts do not consume the key. Group mutations retain terminal failed responses after provider attempts together with received provider truth; their operation contract defines these replayable outcomes.

- If-Match
string Required for a full replacement when the request identifies an existing resource. Send that resource's quoted strong etag from its last GET. A missing condition on a replacement returns 428 PRECONDITION_REQUIRED; a stale condition returns 412 PRECONDITION_FAILED. Omit this header when creating a new resource without an id. Wildcards are accepted only where the operation explicitly permits them.

Errors
400 BAD_REQUESTBad request - invalid request payload

401 UNAUTHORIZEDUnauthorized - invalid or missing authentication token
Obtain a valid access token, then retry.
403 FORBIDDENForbidden - insufficient permissions
Check the linked account and its permissions for the device or resource.
404 NOT_FOUNDNamed group does not exist
Verify the target identifier and that its endpoint or plugin route still exists.
409 IDEMPOTENCY_KEY_IN_FLIGHTThe same idempotency key is in flight
Check the device’s current mode or state. Retry only after the conflict is resolved.
412 PRECONDITION_FAILEDThe group version does not match If-Match
Inspect the returned code and family and follow the error handling guide.
422 IDEMPOTENCY_KEY_REUSEDThe same idempotency key was used with another payload
Correct the rejected value using the constraints in the error details or request schema.
428 PRECONDITION_REQUIREDIf-Match is required for replacement
Inspect the returned code and family and follow the error handling guide.
500 INTERNALInternal server error
