Any subset of `content`, `title`, `contentType` may be sent. Status can be changed via either `statusCategory` (move to the workspace's default status in that lifecycle category) or an explicit `statusId` (from `GET /post-statuses`) — the two are mutually exclusive. Scheduling is driven by `scheduledFor`: * A future ISO timestamp **schedules** (or reschedules) the post. Before scheduling, the project's LinkedIn connection is verified live (`/me` ping + token refresh for personal brands; non-empty admin set for company pages). If LinkedIn isn't connected the request fails `409 conflict` and the post is left unchanged. * `null` **unschedules** the post (reverts to a draft and clears its calendar slot). * Omitting the field leaves the schedule untouched. Emits `post.updated`, plus `post.scheduled` / `post.unscheduled` when the schedule changes. Required scope: `posts:write`. ## OpenAPI ````yaml /openapi/v1.yaml patch /posts/{postId} openapi: 3.1.0 info: title: Scripe Public API version: '2026-08-01' summary: Read-only access to Scripe workspaces, projects, notes, posts, and sources. description: | The Scripe public API gives integrators stable, versioned read access to a workspace's content surface.
