Authorizations

Authorization
string
header
required

Bearer authentication header of the form Bearer <token>, where <token> is your auth token.

Headers

Idempotency-Key
string

Makes the request retry-safe. Sail remembers the answer it sent under a key, including a 400 or a 409, and replays it with Idempotent-Replayed: true for a retry that repeats the key, the method, the path, and the body. Bodies are compared byte for byte. Reusing a key for a different request returns 409, so send a corrected request under a new key. A key that is blank or only spaces is ignored, and the request runs without idempotency.

Any string of up to 255 bytes works, and characters outside ASCII count for more than one. A UUID is a good default. Keys are remembered for at least 24 hours and scoped to the API key that sent them.

A server error, or a failure to record the answer, can leave a key unsettled, and creating a Sailbox is where that matters. See Retrying safely.

Maximum string length: 255
X-Sail-Owner-Override-Reason
string

Lets an organization admin operate a private Sailbox someone else created. Say why in plain text; the reason goes into your organization's audit log, and the operation is refused without it. Ignored on Sailboxes you could already operate.

Pause, resume, sleep, scheduled wake, upgrade, and terminate accept an override. Running commands and moving files accept one through an SDK or the CLI. Publishing and unpublishing ports, adding and removing custom domains, forking, checkpointing, and creating from a checkpoint stay with the creator.

Pattern: ^[ -~]*$

Path Parameters

sailbox_id
string
required

Id of the Sailbox, as returned by create. It is sb_ followed by a UUID.

Pattern: ^sb_[0-9a-fA-F]{8}-[0-9a-fA-F]{4}-[0-9a-fA-F]{4}-[0-9a-fA-F]{4}-[0-9a-fA-F]{12}$

Response

The operation was accepted.

sailbox_id
string
required

Id of the Sailbox.

status
string
required

Current state of the Sailbox. Values in use today are creating, running, paused, sleeping, terminating, terminated, failed, create_failed, interrupted_restorable, and interrupted_unsafe_to_retry. New values can appear over time, so treat this as an open set.
