Update a lesson **Permission:** requires `lessons`. **A missing record does not return 404.** This handler reports the failure without a status code, and the error envelope defaults to HTTP `200` — you get `200` with `status: "failed"`. Branch on `status`, not on the HTTP code. ## OpenAPI ````yaml /api-reference/specs/lessons.json put /api/lessons/{id} openapi: 3.1.0 info: title: ConveYour API — Lessons description: Retrieve, search, and manage lessons and lesson folders. version: 1.0.0 servers: - url: https://{subdomain}.conveyour.com description: Your organization's ConveYour instance variables: subdomain: default: acme description: >- Your organization's slug — the subdomain you sign in on.

The brackets are required: PHP keeps only the last value for a repeated plain key, so `teams=A&teams=B` silently resolves to B alone. On requests with a JSON body you may send `teams` (no brackets) in the body instead. **Values that are not valid ObjectIds are silently ignored** — a mistyped team ID behaves as if no team was sent.
