Set a collection's links

PUT/v1/collections/{collection}/linksCollections

Replaces the collection's links with the ones sent, in that order: the way to add, remove and reorder in one call. An empty list empties it. The links themselves never change.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
`collection`	string, in the path	required	The collection's id.

Request body

JSON, sent with Content-Type: application/json.

Field	Type	Required	Description
`links`	string[]	required	Links in order, each by id, ending or domain/ending (go.example.com/menu). Up to 200; a repeat is kept once. A link that is not the account's is refused on its own field (`details["links.3"]`) and nothing is saved.

Example request

curl -s -X PUT "https://snip.link/v1/collections/3f6c2a9e-1b4d-4e8a-9c7f-2d5b8e1a0c64/links" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $SNIP_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{}'
