Change a social post

PATCHhttps://api.norreach.app/v1/social/posts/{id}

Changes a post that isn't on the calendar: its title, labels, notes, status (idea, draft or in_review) and — when variants is sent — its versions, which then REPLACE the stored ones (networks left out are removed; omit variants to keep them). A scheduled post must be unscheduled first; a post going out or published can't be changed (409). A network's copy that already went out can't be rewritten or removed (409). Media in another workspace's files are refused (422).

⚠ social:publishRole must allow: social.publishOperation id: update_social_post
