Update an OAuth-client link

PATCH/portal/v1/accounts/{accountSlug}/sso/connections/{id}/oauth-clients/{oauthClientId}

Updates the placement config of an existing OAuth-client link; only fields present in the body are changed, and placement nodes/role are re-validated against the client's Environment (400 on mismatch). Switching is_default to true clears any other default for the same client in the same transaction. Emits an sso.connection.oauth_client.updated audit row; responds 404 when the link does not exist.

Authentication

Bearer TokenAuthorization

JWT access token. Never send alongside X-API-Key: a request carrying both is refused.

Requires capability sso.manageSecurity

Manage SSO connections, domains, and directory sync. Granted through an administrator role in the Admin Workspace; a valid token without it is refused with 403.

Path Parameters

idstring Required
oauthClientIdstring Required

Request body

application/json

is_defaultboolean Optional

Send users of this client straight to the IdP (at most one default per client).

default_hierarchy_node_idstring Optional

Node a JIT'd identity lands at when no claim rule matches.

claim_node_mappingClaimNodeRuleDto[] Optional
default_role_idstring Optional

Role assigned to a JIT'd identity at the resolved node.
