Preview an attribute edit's impact

POST /v1/attributes/{id}/preview
Auth required api.attributes.manage

Dry-runs a proposed edit and returns its mutation_class and projected impact — the segments that reference the attribute and, for a disruptive edit, each one's typecheck outcome plus the org-wide drop-out projection — without writing anything. The body is the proposed definition (same shape as the PUT edit body). Use it before committing a disruptive change. Git-backed definitions are read-only and return 409 conflict.

Path parameters

id string<uuid> required

Resource UUID. An unparseable id reads as a clean 404 not_found.

Request body

Content type: application/json

{
  "name": "string",
  "type": "string",
  "enum_values": [
    "string"
  ],
  "description": "string",
  "formula": "string"
}
