PATCH/posts/{id}
Update a scheduled or draft post with the PostEverywhere API
Only posts whose derived status is `scheduled` or `draft` can be edited (`400 invalid_post_status` otherwise). At least one field is required. On a scheduled post, changing `account_ids` rebuilds all destinations. On a draft it only changes the draft's saved accounts: nothing is queued until `schedulePost`. Changing only `scheduled_for` shifts every queued destination by the same delta. Same alias and wrong-field-name rules as `createPost`. `platform_content` (same shape as `createPost`) is merged per platform: the settings you send are added to the saved settings (a key you send replaces that key, keys you leave out are kept), and the platform caption, title, link and tags change only when you send new ones. Snake_case setting aliases and the first comment rule work as in `createPost`; the response `notes` list anything removed. Error codes: `validation_error`, `invalid_post_status`, `content_too_long`, `too_many_accounts`, `invalid_timezone`, `invalid_datetime`, `past_schedule_time`, `invalid_accounts`, `invalid_field_name`, `invalid_id`, `not_found`, `wordpress_post_invalid`, `google_business_post_invalid`.
