- Operation: `update_api_proxy`
- Resource: API proxies
- Access: writes data

## Authentication

- `Authorization: Bearer <key>`: A workspace API key (workspace_…, created by a workspace owner under Workspace settings > Stacksync API) acts with editor rights on that workspace only; a user API key (user_…, created under Profile > Stacksync API) acts as that user in every workspace they belong to. POST, PUT and PATCH requests must send Content-Type: application/json. Every authentication failure answers 403.
- `Content-Type: application/json` on every request with a body.
