Update a group’s mutable fields. You can change metadata.name and the models configuration; the hierarchy block (parent and enforcement mode) is immutable after creation. At least one field must be provided. The models list, when provided, replaces the group’s full model set with set semantics: slugs absent from the new list are removed, and slugs that are new to the group are added.

​
Authentication

​
Authorization
string
required
Workspace API key with management scope, formatted as Api-Key <your-key>.

​
Path parameters

​
group_id
string
required
Internal Baseten ID of the group to update.

​
Body

At least one of metadata or models must be provided.
​
metadata
object
Mutable group metadata.
  • name (string, optional, max length 255): Display name for the group.
metadata.external_entity_id cannot be changed. To re-key a group, delete it and create a fresh one.
​
models
object[]
Replacement model configuration. Same shape as the request body of Create a group. Replaces the existing list with set semantics.Passing an empty list ("models": []) clears every model from the group, which also removes model access from every key under it. Omit the field entirely to leave the model set unchanged.

​
Response

Same shape returned by Create a group, reflecting the post-update state. effective_models is recomputed for this group and propagated to descendants.

​
Errors

StatusMeaning
400 Bad RequestEmpty body, invalid limit shape, or (in a cascading hierarchy) a change that would put this group above an ancestor or below an existing descendant. Lower descendants before lowering the parent, and raise ancestors before raising descendants. See Cascading mode.
403 ForbiddenThe group exists but isn’t in your workspace, or the caller doesn’t have management scope.
404 Not FoundNo group with this id in your workspace, or it has been deleted.
