Change a member's role

Partial patch of one membership row — the customer API’s MemberUpdate body: a role, and the three notification switches notify_domain, notify_uptime, notify_ssl. A body carrying none of them is 400. Only admin, editor and viewer may be granted: viewer reads the domain and its analytics, editor adds records, rules and cache, and admin adds settings, SSL and members.manage — so an admin member can invite and remove members himself. That last one is the power your client was denied; granting it hands it to a third party instead.

Neither the owner nor you can be re-roled here. The owner’s access comes from domains.user_id rather than a membership row (400), and your own provider row is a projection of users.reseller_id that the reconciler would restore, so changing its role is 409.

Subscriptions start off for everyone who accepts an invite, which makes this the only way to switch a client’s agency on to domain, uptime or SSL alerts. Switching your own on changes nothing you would notice: the owner’s copy of those notifications is already redirected to you, and the fan-out collapses by resolved recipient. The response is the bare membership row, not the richer entry the member list returns.

domainId
required
integer

Must belong to a client of the caller, or the response is 403.

userId
required
integer

The member’s user id, as returned by the member list.

The customer API’s request body for the equivalent endpoint, unchanged. See openapi.yaml; it is not restated here for the same reason the response is not.

The customer API’s response for the equivalent endpoint, unchanged.

These operations mount the SAME Go handlers the customer panel calls, so the body shape is defined there and is deliberately not restated here — a second copy of the DNS record or rule schema is a second thing to keep in step, and the copy is always the one that goes stale. See openapi.yaml.

Every error body carries error, a human-readable sentence. Some also carry code, a stable machine-readable reason — branch on that, never on the sentence, which is prose and gets reworded.

object
error
required
string
code

Present only on the failures worth branching on, and deliberately not an exhaustive enum: treat a code you do not recognise as if it were absent and fall back to the status code.

The ones that exist today:

  • credit_limit_reached — 402 from POST /services and POST /services/{serviceId}/change-plan. Your wallet, not the client’s: funding the purchase would take you past your overdraft (default 0, i.e. past zero). Top up; do not credit the client.
  • domain_disabled — 409 from a configuration write on a disabled domain (records, rules, cache, SSL, members, settings). The domain is read-only until POST /domains/{domainId}/enable.
  • unknown_rule_type — 404 from the rules paths when ruleType is not one of the documented values. You get this rather than an empty array, so a typo cannot read as a rule set that happens to be empty.
  • rate_limited — 429 from any route. Keyed per credential, so one runaway integration cannot lock its owner out of the dashboard.
  • session_check_failed — 503, and only on calls made with a dashboard session JWT. The session could not be verified, which is not the same as knowing it is revoked, so it is retryable and the session survives. Machine tokens never see this.
string
Example
{
"error": "forbidden",
"code": "credit_limit_reached"
}

Missing, malformed, expired, or revoked credential.

Something failed on our side. The body carries a human sentence and never an internal detail — a live sweep of this API once returned dial tcp 127.0.0.1:9000: connect: connection refused, which is our topology rather than an error message. That is now impossible.

Distinguish it from 503. A 503 means a dependency is down and the identical request will succeed later, so retry it. A 500 means the request hit a genuine fault: retrying it unchanged will fail the same way, and it should be reported with the X-Request-Id from the response header.

Declared on every operation because every operation can reach it. It was previously declared on exactly one, which left a generated client with no branch for the answer it is most likely to be surprised by.
