This endpoint is only available for admin users. Demote existing team admin if there are more than one as one admin is always required. This endpoint is only available for admin users.

This will update the billing plan and re-enable their access to the documention. List all your document collections. Returns detailed information on a document collection. Creates a new document collection. Returns a zip file of all the collections documents in markdown format. If documents are nested then they will be nested in folders inside the zip file. This method allows you to modify an already created collection. This method allows you to add a user to a private collection. This method allows you to remove a user from a private collection.

This methods allows you to search your teams documents with keywords. Search results will be restricted to those accessible by the current access token. This method allows you to publish a new document under an existing collection. By default a document is set to the parent collection root. If you want to create a subdocument, you can pass{' '} parentDocumentId to set parent document. ID of the collection to which the document is created } required /> ID of the parent document within the collection } /> true by default. Pass false to create a draft. } /> This method allows you to modify already created document. Pass true to publish a draft. } /> Pass true to append the text parameter to the end of the document rather than replace. } /> Pass true to signify an autosave. This skips creating a revision. } /> Pass true to signify the end of an editing session. This will trigger update notifications. } /> Move a document to a new location or collection. If no parent document is provided, the document will be moved to the collection root. Archive a document and all of its child documents, if any. Permanantly delete a document and all of its child documents, if any. Get a document with its ID or URL identifier from user’s collections. Restores a document to a previous revision by creating a new revision with the contents of the given revisionId or restores an archived document if no revisionId is passed. Pins a document to the collection home. The pinned document is visible to all members of the team. Unpins a document from the collection home. It will still remain in the collection itself. Star (favorite) a document for authenticated user. Unstar a starred (favorited) document for authenticated user. Return recently viewed documents for the authenticated user Return recently starred documents for the authenticated user Return pinned documents for a collection Return a specific revision of a document. Return revisions for a document. Upon each edit, a new revision is stored. List all your currently shared document links. Creates a new share link that can be used by anyone to access a document. If you request multiple shares for the same document with the same user the same share will be returned. Makes the share link inactive so that it can no longer be used to access the document. List all users that have viewed a document and the overall view count. Creates a new view for a document. This is documented in the interests of thoroughness however it is recommended that views are not created from outside of the Outline UI.
