Update Knowledge Source
Partially update mutable fields of an existing knowledge source such as name, description, tags, or source-specific configuration. Only the fields provided in the request body will be updated. Some changes (e.g., KnowledgeSourceTypes) may trigger asynchronous reprocessing of the underlying content. Fields omitted from the request remain unchanged. Immutable fields (id, type, status, url, createdAt, updatedAt) cannot be modified directly.
Refresh
To request reprocessing without changing fields, pass the query parameter refresh=true. When refresh=true is provided, the server will re-queue processing for this knowledge resource (transitioning the persisted status to QUEUED) and return 202 Accepted. This query parameter is idempotent while the resource is already QUEUED or PROCESSING.
Query parameters
When true, re-queues processing for this knowledge resource. Idempotent while the resource is already QUEUED or PROCESSING.
