Update expiring targets for segment

Update expiring context targets for a segment. Updating a context target expiration uses the semantic patch format.

To make a semantic patch request, you must append domain-model=launchdarkly.semanticpatch to your Content-Type header. To learn more, read Updates using semantic patch.

If the request is well-formed but any of its instructions failed to process, this operation returns status code 200. In this case, the response errors array will be non-empty.

Instructions

Semantic patch requests support the following kind instructions for updating expiring context targets.

Click to expand instructions for updating expiring context targets

addExpiringTarget

Schedules a date and time when LaunchDarkly will remove a context from segment targeting. The segment must already have the context as an individual target.

Parameters
  • targetType: The type of individual target for this context. Must be either included or excluded.
  • contextKey: The context key.
  • contextKind: The kind of context being targeted.
  • value: The date when the context should expire from the segment targeting, in Unix milliseconds.

Here’s an example:

1{
2  "instructions": [{
3    "kind": "addExpiringTarget",
4    "targetType": "included",
5    "contextKey": "user-key-123abc",
6    "contextKind": "user",
7    "value": 1754092860000
8  }]
9}

updateExpiringTarget

Updates the date and time when LaunchDarkly will remove a context from segment targeting.

Parameters
  • targetType: The type of individual target for this context. Must be either included or excluded.
  • contextKey: The context key.
  • contextKind: The kind of context being targeted.
  • value: The new date when the context should expire from the segment targeting, in Unix milliseconds.
  • version: (Optional) The version of the expiring target to update. If included, update will fail if version doesn’t match current version of the expiring target.

Here’s an example:

1{
2  "instructions": [{
3    "kind": "updateExpiringTarget",
4    "targetType": "included",
5    "contextKey": "user-key-123abc",
6    "contextKind": "user",
7    "value": 1754179260000
8  }]
9}

removeExpiringTarget

Removes the scheduled expiration for the context in the segment.

Parameters
  • targetType: The type of individual target for this context. Must be either included or excluded.
  • contextKey: The context key.
  • contextKind: The kind of context being targeted.

Here’s an example:

1{
2  "instructions": [{
3    "kind": "removeExpiringTarget",
4    "targetType": "included",
5    "contextKey": "user-key-123abc",
6    "contextKind": "user",
7  }]
8}
