Update Draft

UpdateDraft updates an existing draft PUT /api/v1/compose/drafts/:id

Authentication & compatibility

Use a scoped bearer API key with email:send. The key is bound to its user and organization.

Primary SES compose workflow. Reply/forward contexts use public SES mailbox UUIDs; draft and attachment operations use owned records. In legacy non-SES configurations, sending can fall back to JMAP.

Contract 2026-10-04. Your running instance's /api/v1/openapi.json is authoritative for its deployed release.

Request

Set MAILAT_BASE_URL to your instance origin (without /api/v1) and MAILAT_TOKEN to an appropriate credential. Replace path placeholders and example data before running. These examples do not execute in this page.

  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data '{
  "identityId": 1,
  "subject": "Updated draft",
  "textBody": "In progress",
