Silence a watched domain's alerts without removing it.

All domains endpoints

Authentication

Send an API key as a bearer token. This endpoint does not state a specific permission in the specification, so give your key the least it needs and check the response rather than assuming.

This endpoint takes no organisation id. Your key already identifies the organisation it belongs to, and the response is scoped to it.

Try it

Replace anything in angle brackets with your own values, and the key placeholder with a key from your dashboard.

curl -X POST https://api.zinndigital.com/v1/domain-watches/{watchId}/mute \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer zdk_live_…" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{  }'

Signed in? The API console in your dashboard fills in your real organisation id and your own key, and runs the request against the live API so you can see the actual response. Open this endpoint in the API console

Details

⚖️ Owner 2026-08-30: *"can be removed at anytime or silenced at least."* ⛔ A muted watch is **still checked** and its history still recorded — only its notifications are suppressed. Skipping the read would leave a hole, so un-muting would produce a burst of "changes" that are simply everything that happened while nobody was listening. Send `until: null` to un-mute.
