saveSpaceTextFile
Save new text as the next version of a text file you can edit.
Save new text as the next version of a text file you can edit (earlier versions are kept and can be restored in the app). Pass baseVersionId (the versionId getSpaceTextContent returned) so a save over someone else's newer version is refused instead of overwriting it.

The example sends only what the schema requires. Some operations also need one of several optional variables (one filter or another, say); the description above says which.
The version the editor started from; a save over someone else's newer one is refused.
The open editor's session id. While the same person keeps saving from one session (saves no more than 10 minutes apart), each save replaces that session's version instead of adding one.
Response
What comes back under data: a list shows as one entry, and a value as its type.

}Errors
unknown_variableA variable the operation does not declare. A typo is refused rather than silently dropped.
unauthorizedNo bearer header, or the key is invalid or revoked.
insufficient_scopeThe key lacks the scope the operation requires.
forbiddenA referenced record does not exist, was deleted, or is outside your organization. The gateway cannot tell those apart.
idempotency_conflictA request with this Idempotency-Key is still in flight.
Idempotency
Send an Idempotency-Key of 1 to 255 characters. A finished request retried with the same key replays its stored response, marked Idempotency-Replayed: true; one still in flight returns 409 idempotency_conflict. Keys expire after 24 hours. Write without fear →
