Required scope with bearer authority: `block:write`. Mutations carry intentId in the JSON body. Retry the exact same action with its original intentId; a different payload with that identifier returns intent_conflict. Bearer social calls may omit Origin; if supplied it must exactly match the network origin. ## OpenAPI ````yaml /openapi.json put /api/blocks/{actorId} openapi: 3.1.0 info: title: SharedGraph public application API version: pilot description: >- Pilot: breaking changes are possible and announced in the changelog. SharedGraph is a common social network used through independently operated applications. Supported integration: server-backed confidential OAuth client using authorization code with S256 PKCE. Anonymous public reads are a pilot convenience: 120 requests/minute per connecting address, with a tighter shared 30/minute events+reconcile budget. Signed-in views must preserve bearer safety rules and never fall back to anonymous after a refusal. No account-management, moderator, operator, registration or debug API is part of this reference. Provider browser helpers use account cookies; token endpoints use Basic; social private reads and mutations use bearer. x-app-generation is an application BFF session signal, not a core response header. Error catalog below records the pilot domain and OAuth protocol refusals; provider error descriptions are diagnostic text, not a stable machine identifier. servers: - url: https://api.sharedgraph.com description: Hosted pilot network security: - BearerAuth: [] tags: - name: Social - name: OAuth - name: Discovery paths: /api/blocks/{actorId}: put: tags: - Social summary: Add a block description: >- Add a block.
