Apply the same partial data patch to every row matching a non-empty predicate.

Authorization

apiKey

X-API-Key<token>

Your Sim API key, personal or workspace-scoped. Generate one under Settings, then API Keys. Operations that reject workspace keys say so in their own description.

Path Parameters

tableId*string

Unique table identifier.

Length1 <= length

Request Body

application/json

Workspace scope, typed predicate, and row-data patch.

TypeScript Definitions

Use the request body type in TypeScript.

workspaceId*string

Unique workspace identifier.

Length1 <= length <= 128

filter*|

Recursive predicate tree. Each group node is exactly one non-empty all or any array whose members are further groups or { field, op, value } conditions; the root must be a group, not a bare condition. At most 100 members per group, 10 levels of nesting, and 500 nodes in total. The negating operators include nulls: ne, nin, ncontains, nlike, and nilike match rows whose column is null or absent, so "not X" is not the complement of "X" over a nullable column. That holds for every column type, multi-select included. To exclude nulls, all-combine the negation with isNotEmpty (multi-select) or isNotNull. Comparison: eq, ne, gt, gte, lt, lte. Membership: in, nin (array operand). Emptiness: isEmpty, isNotEmpty, isNull, isNotNull (no operand). Substring, always case-insensitive, operand matched literally: contains, ncontains, startsWith, endsWith. Pattern: like/nlike (case-sensitive), ilike/nilike (case-insensitive). * is the only wildcard and stands for any run of characters; %, _, and backslash match themselves. Use like: "Hi*", not like: "Hi%". A select column compares by option id and restricts its operators: single-select accepts eq, ne, in, nin; multi-select accepts contains, ncontains. Option names are accepted as operands and resolved to ids.

data*

Row-data patch applied to every matching row.

limit?integer

Maximum matching rows to update.

Range1 <= value <= 1000
