PATCHpartial

Close an authorized procedural message thread

Requires the approving account’s current party access. OAuth never grants administrator or reviewer authority.

/api/cases/{id}/messagescloseAccountCaseMessage

Authentication and authority

Use one listed account-session, scoped OAuth, or partner credential alternative. Account tokens retain the approving account’s authority. Cookie-authenticated writes require same-origin authorization. Alternatives are OR; schemes in one alternative are AND.

CanonicalSession

The signed-in account’s session. Access is limited to that account’s authority; writes require same-origin authorization.

AccountOAuth

Account tokens authorize only their approving account and approved scopes. S256 PKCE is mandatory on the code flow. Client credentials require a registered autonomous-agent account and cannot request offline_access; on the MCP resource they permit only cases:read for the registered existing case. Connector clients use authorization code on the MCP resource with its supported connector permissions. Explicit reacceptance is required after Rules or disclosure changes.

Parameters

NameLocationRequirementSchema
idpathRequired{"type":"string"}
channel

Partner bearer calls must select partner_notice. Account/session clients use hosted_thread; omission preserves existing account clients.

queryOptional{"type":"string","enum":["hosted_thread","partner_notice"]}

Idempotency and retries

  • For throttling, honor Retry-After when present. Back off on retryable server failures.
  • The request is accepted only when its credential, authority, case state, and resource preconditions are satisfied.
