Every path id on the workspaces bundle is checked for UUID shape before the route runs, so a malformed one is a plain
Every workspaces endpoint declares its fields exactly, and a top-level field it does not declare is refused rather than ignored — in the request body and in the query string alike, for every caller. Two or more at once are named together:
Returned when a service/master key sends a body with a
inheritsFromParent flag — the switch controlling whether authority from above reaches into this node. See Reach & the wall/door rule.
- Owner-only in both directions (the workspace’s own owner or an ancestor owner). Not a capability.
- Subject to the enforced-default lock: if the project sets
workspaces.inheritEnforced, the flip is rejected with403 workspace/inherit-enforced.
Path Parameters
string
required
The workspace UUID.
Body Parameters
boolean
required
The new flag value (
true = open/door, false = sealed/wall).string
Service/master keys only — the user to act as. Enforced: the owner-only guard runs against the named user, so a key naming a non-owner is refused exactly as that user would be. Omit it to act as the app itself (unbounded). The
workspace/inherit-enforced project lock is a separate gate and applies either way. See Acting on behalf of a user.The node SDK is stricter than this endpoint: it types actingUserId as required here, so omitting it is only possible by calling the REST route directly.Several shapes are refused rather than ignored on this path. actingUserId: "" or null is a 400 — it reads as an attempt to name someone, not as “nobody”. So is every top-level field this endpoint does not declare, in the body and in the query string alike, for every caller: onBehalfOf, acting_user_id and impersonate all come back as Unrecognized key: "…" rather than being quietly dropped. A key that differs from actingUserId only in capitalization — actingUserID, actinguserid — is refused too, but with a “did you mean actingUserId?” message instead of the generic one. And when the request names nobody, so is any body whose Content-Type is not application/json — an unparsed body discards the actingUserId inside it just as surely as a misspelling would.

400 rather than a 500 from the database.Undeclared Field — 400
Undeclared Field — 400
{ "error": "Unrecognized key: \"onBehalfOf\"", "code": "workspace/invalid-body" }
Unrecognized keys: "onBehalfOf", "impersonate". An offender in the query string carries workspace/invalid-query instead. Send only the fields documented above, plus actingUserId and projectId, which every workspaces route accepts. See Shapes the server rejects.Unparsed Body — 400
Unparsed Body — 400
{
"error": "This request carries a body with content-type \"text/plain;charset=UTF-8\", which no parser reads, so any `actingUserId` inside it was discarded and this request names no acting user. Send the body as application/json.",
"code": "workspace/invalid-body"
}
Content-Type other than application/json and no actingUserId was read. Sublay parses only application/json, so the actor inside such a body is discarded and the request would fall through to the unbounded path. fetch() sends text/plain;charset=UTF-8 when you pass a stringified body and set no headers — set the header. An empty JSON body and a bodiless request both pass. See Shapes the server rejects.
