Turn maintenance mode on or off.

All hosting endpoints

Authentication

Send an API key as a bearer token. The key must carry the sites.view 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 PUT https://api.zinndigital.com/v1/sites/{siteId}/wordpress/maintenance \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer zdk_live_…" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{ "enabled": <boolean> }'

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

Hides the site behind WordPress's maintenance page, or brings it back. ⛔ **Confirmed by re-reading the flag**, never by acknowledging our own request. The flag is a file in the document root, and a write that failed on a full disk or a read-only mount exits cleanly on some hosts — so acknowledging would tell a customer their shop is hidden while it is serving orders, or the reverse. ⛔ `{"enabled": bool}` both ways, rather than two paths or a bare boolean body, so a client cannot turn maintenance mode **on** by sending a body it meant as "off". ⛔ **Fleet only** — refused where `wp_maintenance` is `false`. Requires `sites.view` and `sites.panel_access`.
