Featurebase API (2026-01-01.nova)
Welcome to the Featurebase API. This API allows you to programmatically interact with your Featurebase organization.
This documentation reflects API version 2026-01-01.nova.
This API uses date-based versioning. Each version is identified by a release date and slug, e.g., 2026-01-01.nova.
Specifying a Version
Include the version in the request header:
Featurebase-Version: 2026-01-01.novaOr set a default version for your organization in the dashboard settings.
Version Compatibility
- Newer versions may add new fields to responses (always backwards-compatible)
- Breaking changes (removed/renamed fields, changed behavior) only occur in new versions
- Your integration will continue to work as long as you pin to a specific version
All API requests require authentication via API key.
Include in headers:
Authorization: Bearer <api-key>Create and manage your API keys in the Featurebase dashboard.
The API uses conventional HTTP response codes to indicate success or failure:
2xx- Success4xx- Client errors (bad request, unauthorized, not found, etc.)5xx- Server errors (internal error)

{
"error": {
"type": "invalid_request_error",
"code": "resource_not_found",
"message": "Post not found",
"param": "id",

Request
Updates a ticket's properties. Only provided fields will be updated.
id- The ticket number
All fields are optional.
| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
title | string | Update title |
content | string | Update description (HTML) |
statusId | string | Set status by ID |
open | boolean | Close (false) or reopen (true) the ticket |
assigneeId | string/null | Assign/unassign admin |
companyId | string/null | Update company association |
customFields | object | Update custom field values |
snoozedUntil | string/null | Snooze until ISO 8601 timestamp (null to unsnooze) |
skipNotifications | boolean | Skip notifications (default false) |
Set open: false to close the ticket. Closing a ticket will also unsnooze it. The status is not changed automatically — use statusId to change the status explicitly.
File-type custom fields support the same two upload methods as ticket creation: multipart upload (customFields.<fieldId> file parts with JSON in the data field) and external URLs ({ "url": "https://..." } with optional "name" in the custom field value). Same limits apply (10 files, 400MB total, executable types blocked).
Returns the updated ticket object.
