Edit message
Edits the content of one of the customer’s own messages. Sets is_edited = true and
records edited_at. Cannot edit a soft-deleted message.
This is a customer-self write: it works with a publishable key plus the customer’s session
token in x-auth-token (the same browser-origin pattern as cart/wishlist writes). The session
token proves ownership of the message; a customer can only edit messages they sent.

}Authorizations
API Key Authentication
Use your API key in the Authorization header:
Authorization: Bearer tybrite_sk_live_YOUR_KEY
Key Types:
Secret Keys (Server-Side Only):
- Format:
tybrite_sk_live_*(production) ortybrite_sk_test_*(sandbox) - Full read/write access to all endpoints
- ⚠️ NEVER expose in client-side code or public repositories
- Required for: every write a shopper does not make for themselves, authentication, payment verification, AI recommendations
Publishable Keys (Client-Safe):
- Format:
tybrite_pk_live_*(production) ortybrite_pk_test_*(sandbox) - Catalogue reads, plus the actions a shopper takes for themselves
- ✅ Safe for client-side JavaScript, mobile apps, and public code
- Allowed for: browsing products, search, CMS content, pricing queries, cart and wishlist, reviews, storefront events, and the Agent API's quotes, cart drafts and checkout intents
Endpoint-Specific Requirements:
- Authentication endpoints (
/v1/auth/*): Secret key required - Payment verification (
POST /v1/payments/verify): Secret key required - AI Recommendations (
POST /v1/recommendations): Secret key required - Semantic Search (
POST /v1/search): Both key types allowed (read-only operation) - Shopper actions (cart, wishlist, reviews, storefront events, Agent API quotes, cart drafts and checkout intents): Both key types allowed
- All other write operations: Secret key required
- All read operations: Both key types allowed
Using a publishable key for restricted operations returns 403 Forbidden.
Headers
Customer session access_token. Required to prove ownership of the thread/message being accessed.
Bring-your-own-auth assertion for stores that manage authentication in an external identity provider (Auth0, Clerk, Cognito, Firebase, NextAuth, SSO). The resolved customer is used as the message author / thread participant.
Format: <base64url(JSON)>.<base64url(HMAC-SHA256(JSON))> where the JSON is { "external_id": "...", "iat": <unix>, "exp": <unix> } and the HMAC is keyed on the store's hmac_secret. Claim lifetime capped at 300 seconds. Provide exactly one of x-auth-token, x-external-auth, or x-idp-token.
A raw token from the store's own identity provider (e.g. a Firebase ID token). Galactic Core forwards it to the store's configured Auth verifier, which validates it against the provider and returns the identity; the resolved customer is used as the message author / thread participant.
Use this when the store wants Galactic Core to verify tokens on its behalf rather than signing an assertion itself. Verification is fail-closed: if the verifier rejects the token or is unreachable, the request is unauthenticated (401). Requires an Auth verifier to be configured for the store. Provide exactly one of x-auth-token, x-external-auth, or x-idp-token.
