Unlock the configuration

post

/rest/{version}/configuration/unlock

Releases the configuration lock previously acquired by the client via /configuration/lock POST. If the client does not own the configuration lock and attempts to release it, 423 Locked is returned.

While it exists, the configuration lock is tied to a token. If a REST client loses the token, the client will have to wait until the token expires before requesting the configuration lock.

Request

Header Parameters

• Authorization(required):
  The value in the Authorization header must be the string "Bearer {access token}", where {access token} is a valid, unexpired token received in response to a prior /rest/{version}/auth/token request.
