All hosting endpoints

Authentication

Send an API key as a bearer token. The key must carry the hosting.cdn.manage permission; a key without it is refused with 403, not 404.

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/sites/{siteId}/cdn/profile \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer zdk_live_…"

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

Puts the zone back to our recommended settings and cache rules — the "reset to recommended defaults" action. Idempotent: applying a profile that is already in force changes nothing at the provider. There is **no request body**. These are pooled provider accounts carrying other customers' zones and a zone resolves by name alone, so the hostname is read from the site row and there is no field through which a neighbouring zone could be named. Settings are applied before cache rules, never the other way round: the rules include a cache-everything rule and the settings include the edge-to-origin TLS mode, so the reverse order would briefly cache pages fetched over a leg whose TLS mode had not yet been corrected. A provider that cannot express part of the profile is reported per capability in the response rather than failing the call. Requires `hosting.cdn.manage`.

Response

NameTypeRequiredWhat it is
site_idUuidYesUUIDv7 identifier — sortable by creation time (docs/02 §8).
profilestringYesWhich recommended profile applies to this site, chosen by product line — `footprint_free` caches HTML aggressively, `mainstream` leaves that decision to the origin.
settings_supportedbooleanYesWhether this site's CDN can express the profile's zone settings.
cache_rules_supportedbooleanYesWhether this site's CDN can express per-request cache rules. Separate from `settings_supported` because a provider may offer one and not the other.
driftedstring[]YesSetting keys whose live value differs from the recommendation, plus `cache_rules` when a recommended rule is missing at the provider. Empty means the zone matches what we recomm…

rulesSiteCdnProfileRule[]YesThe recommended rules, in evaluation order. Bypasses come first.
managedbooleanYesWhether the customer has asked us to keep this profile applied. `false` — the default — means drift is reported and nothing is corrected without a person pressing the button. `t…
