Update an opportunity

Opportunities module

PATCH/opportunities/{id}opportunities.update

An opportunity published from an approved requisition. Without posted compensation it shows Rate on Request, never zero. Updates the fields sent; omitted fields are unchanged. Requires `If-Match` with the current `ETag`: a stale tag returns 412 and a missing tag returns 428.

  • Requires the capability opportunities.posting.write.
  • OAuth scopes: opportunities.
  • Send If-Match with the ETag you read. A stale tag returns 412; a missing tag returns 428.
  • Error statuses: 400, 401, 404, 412, 422, 428, 429. Errors are RFC 9457 problem details.
