The post /reviews example highlights a different part of the process: v2 proposed. Review example payloads alongside the schema. Record compatibility assumptions before approving a version change. Compare it with patch /owners before assuming that both items require the same response.
Work through the specimen
A renamed field can look harmless in a pull request while breaking an integration that relies on its old meaning.
Example: POST /reviews
The illustrative record contains v2 proposed. Its state is 201. Ask what evidence supports that state, which detail is still uncertain and whether the next person could understand it without reading a separate message thread.
Questions for a working review
- Check the current condition against the stated context. For post /reviews, use “v2 proposed” as the starting context.
- Identify which role can verify the information. For post /reviews, use “v2 proposed” as the starting context.
- Record the exception as well as the expected path. For post /reviews, use “v2 proposed” as the starting context.
A small exercise
Take one recent api collaboration example from your own process. Write its context without using a status label, then add the label separately. If the two contradict each other, investigate the source before updating the record. Compare the result with “PATCH /owners” in the demonstration to see which distinctions your process needs.
These are planning notes. The specimen is illustrative, and the preview does not process live work.
