# Change an opening hours override

PATCH https://www.lettbestilt.no/api/v1/partner/restaurants/{slug}/hours/overrides/{overrideId}
Content-Type: application/json

**Partner key + restaurant key.** Changes the fields you send. End a period early with `{ "endDate": "<today>" }` (it still applies for the rest of today); an override that has not started is removed with `DELETE`. With `expectedUpdatedAt`, a concurrent change gives `409 CHANGED`; without it, the first write wins and the second gets `409`. No difference gives 200 without a change. Not allowed for an archived restaurant or the demo restaurant.

Reference: https://docs.lettbestilt.no/api-reference/partner/update-partner-hours-override

## Authentication

- `Authorization` header (bearer token, required) — The partner key (`lbp_test_…` or `lbp_live_…`), sent as `Authorization: Bearer lbp_…` and created in LettBestilt Partner under **Partner key**. It belongs to the whole partner, not to a restaurant, and only works against `/api/v1/partner`. Server to server only: a request with an `Origin` header is rejected with `403 FORBIDDEN`, and the key must never be in a browser. A TEST key sees and creates only sandboxes; LIVE keys work once LettBestilt Partner is open. A suspended or archived partner, a revoked key and a restaurant key (`lbs_…`) here give `401 UNAUTHORIZED`; an expired key gives `401 KEY_EXPIRED`.
- `X-LettBestilt-Restaurant-Key` header (required) — The restaurant's own key (`lbs_test_…` or `lbs_live_…`) for calls about one restaurant in the partner API, sent together with the partner key. The key must have full access (scope `*`, otherwise `403 INSUFFICIENT_SCOPE`), belong to a restaurant the partner owns and be in the same environment as the partner key. A restaurant that does not exist, belongs to another partner or does not match the key always gives the same `404 RESTAURANT_NOT_FOUND`. Older keys without an environment in the prefix (`lbs_<random>`) are not accepted here; rotate them in LettBestilt Partner.

## Request

### Path parameters

- `slug` (string, required) — The restaurant's slug. It must match the restaurant key in `X-LettBestilt-Restaurant-Key`.
- `overrideId` (string, required) — The override's `id` from `GET …/hours`.

### Body (application/json)

This endpoint expects a PartnerHoursOverrideUpdate.

- `label` (string, optional)
- `startDate` (date, optional) — Calendar day in Oslo time, `YYYY-MM-DD`.
- `endDate` (date, optional) — Set it to today to end a period early.
- `opensAt` (string, optional, nullable)
- `closesAt` (string, optional, nullable)
- `isClosed` (boolean, optional)
- `expectedUpdatedAt` (datetime, optional) — `updatedAt` as you read it. If the override has changed since, the API responds `409 CHANGED`.

## Response

### 200

The override as it is now.

- `data` (PartnerHoursOverride, required) — An override of the weekly hours for a date period (a public holiday, a holiday, summer hours). Dates are `YYYY-MM-DD` in Oslo time; `endDate` is inclusive and cannot be before `startDate`. `isClosed: true` closes the whole period; an open override needs both `opensAt` and `closesAt`. `closesAt` before `opensAt` means open 00:00–`closesAt` and `opensAt`–24:00 on each day of the period (e.g. 18:00/02:00 = 00:00–02:00 and 18:00–24:00 on the same day), not a window into the next day. When several overrides cover the same day, the one with the shortest period wins.

## Errors

### 400 Bad Request Error

`INVALID_JSON`.

- `error` (ErrorBody, required)

### 401 Unauthorized Error

`UNAUTHORIZED`: a key is missing, invalid or revoked, the two keys are from different environments (TEST and LIVE), or the partner is suspended or archived. `KEY_EXPIRED`: a key is past its expiry date.

- `error` (ErrorBody, required)

### 403 Forbidden Error

`FORBIDDEN`: the request has an `Origin` header (server to server only). `PARTNER_AGREEMENT_REQUIRED`: a LIVE key, but the partner agreements are not signed. `PARTNER_NOT_APPROVED`: LettBestilt has not approved the partner yet (all keys). `INSUFFICIENT_SCOPE`: the restaurant key does not have full access (`error.details.requiredScope` is `"*"`).

- `error` (ErrorBody, required)

### 404 Not Found Error

`RESTAURANT_NOT_FOUND`, or `HOURS_OVERRIDE_NOT_FOUND` when the override does not belong to the restaurant (the same response as an unknown id).

- `error` (ErrorBody, required)

### 409 Conflict Error

`RESTAURANT_ARCHIVED` (the restaurant is archived) or `DEMO_RESTAURANT` (the demo restaurant cannot be changed through the API), or `CHANGED` (changed at the same time, or `expectedUpdatedAt` is out of date).

- `error` (ErrorBody, required)

### 422 Unprocessable Entity Error

`VALIDATION_FAILED` with `error.details.issues`: an unknown field, an empty change, an invalid date or time, or a result where `endDate` is before `startDate` or an open period has no times.

- `error` (ErrorBody, required)

### 429 Too Many Requests Error

`RATE_LIMITED`: more than 120 calls per minute for this partner key, or more than 600 per minute for the partner across all its keys (reads and writes). Writes also share a bucket of 30 changes per minute per partner and environment. See `Retry-After`.

- `error` (ErrorBody, required)

## Types

### PartnerHoursOverride

An override of the weekly hours for a date period (a public holiday, a holiday, summer hours). Dates are `YYYY-MM-DD` in Oslo time; `endDate` is inclusive and cannot be before `startDate`. `isClosed: true` closes the whole period; an open override needs both `opensAt` and `closesAt`. `closesAt` before `opensAt` means open 00:00–`closesAt` and `opensAt`–24:00 on each day of the period (e.g. 18:00/02:00 = 00:00–02:00 and 18:00–24:00 on the same day), not a window into the next day. When several overrides cover the same day, the one with the shortest period wins.

- `id` (string, required)
- `label` (string, required)
- `startDate` (date, required) — Calendar day in Oslo time, `YYYY-MM-DD`.
- `endDate` (date, required) — Calendar day in Oslo time, `YYYY-MM-DD`, inclusive.
- `opensAt` (string, required, nullable) — `null` when the period is closed, or when it is only a label (the weekly hours then apply).
- `closesAt` (string, required, nullable)
- `isClosed` (boolean, required)
- `createdAt` (datetime, required)
- `updatedAt` (datetime, required) — Send it as `expectedUpdatedAt` in PATCH to detect concurrent changes.
- `textCleaned` (integer, optional) — Only in the response to a write, and only when `label` was cleaned: links, email addresses, HTML, `javascript:` or invisible direction marks were removed (as for the menu).

### ErrorBody

- `code` (enum, required) — A machine-readable error code.
  - Allowed values: `MISSING_SLUG`, `MISSING_TOKEN`, `INVALID_JSON`, `INVALID_SUCCESS_URL`, `INVALID_CANCEL_URL`, `VALIDATION_FAILED`, `RESTAURANT_NOT_FOUND`, `ORDER_NOT_FOUND`, `RATE_LIMITED`, `BAD_REQUEST`, `UNAUTHORIZED`, `FORBIDDEN`, `INSUFFICIENT_SCOPE`, `KEY_EXPIRED`, `POPUP_NOT_AVAILABLE`, `PRICE_CHANGED`, `PAYMENT_INCOMPLETE`, `PAYMENT_PENDING`, `PAYMENT_PROVIDER_INVALID`, `FULFILLMENT_NOT_ALLOWED`, `IDEMPOTENCY_CONFLICT`, `DINE_IN_DISABLED`, `PARTY_TOO_LARGE`, `TOO_EARLY`, `NO_TABLE`, `INVALID_PARTY_SIZE`, `INTERNAL_ERROR`, `PARTNER_AGREEMENT_REQUIRED`, `IDEMPOTENCY_KEY_REQUIRED`, `SLUG_TAKEN`, `SANDBOX_LIMIT`, `RETENTION`, `RESTAURANT_ARCHIVED`, `KEY_NOT_FOUND`, `KEY_IN_USE`, `WEBHOOK_NOT_FOUND`, `WEBHOOK_LIMIT`, `CHANGED`, `PDF_TOO_LARGE`, `PDF_INVALID`, `PDF_PASSWORD`, `PDF_TOO_MANY_PAGES`, `PDF_NO_TEXT`, `PDF_PARSE_TIMEOUT`, `MENU_IMPORT_EMPTY`, `FILE_UNSUPPORTED`, `IMAGE_HEIC`, `IMAGE_INVALID`, `IMAGE_DIMENSIONS`, `MENU_IMPORT_UNAVAILABLE`, `MENU_IMPORT_AI_LIMIT`, `MENU_IMPORT_TOO_BIG`, `MENU_IMPORT_NOT_FOUND`, `MENU_IMPORT_CLOSED`, `PARTNER_NOT_APPROVED`, `PARTNER_DATA_LOCKED`, `DOMAIN_NOT_FOUND`, `DOMAIN_TAKEN`, `DOMAIN_LIMIT`, `DOMAIN_MANAGED`, `DOMAIN_NOT_VERIFIED`, `OWNER_EXISTS`, `OWNER_EMAIL_NOT_ALLOWED`, `OWNER_INVITE_NOT_FOUND`, `SANDBOX_NOT_SUPPORTED`, `INVITE_SEND_FAILED`, `GO_LIVE_NOT_REQUIRED`, `GO_LIVE_NOT_READY`, `GO_LIVE_CHECKS_FAILED`, `GO_LIVE_ALREADY_REQUESTED`, `GO_LIVE_ALREADY_APPROVED`, `GO_LIVE_NOTHING_TO_WITHDRAW`, `DEMO_RESTAURANT`, `LEGAL_LOCKED`, `HOURS_OVERRIDE_NOT_FOUND`, `HOURS_OVERRIDE_LIMIT`, `DELIVERY_ZONE_NOT_FOUND`, `DELIVERY_ZONE_LIMIT`, `MENU_NOT_FOUND`, `MENU_IS_DEFAULT`, `CATEGORY_NOT_FOUND`, `PRODUCT_NOT_FOUND`, `ADDON_GROUP_NOT_FOUND`, `CATEGORY_NOT_EMPTY`, `CATEGORY_LIMIT`, `PRODUCT_LIMIT`, `ADDON_GROUP_LIMIT`, `KEY_ROLE_FORBIDDEN`, `WHITE_LABEL_REQUIRED`, `LOGO_NOT_ALLOWED`, `FILE_TOO_LARGE`, `UPLOAD_FAILED`, `PARTNER_ARCHIVED`, `PARTNER_NEWS_FORBIDDEN`, `NEWS_NOT_FOUND`, `NOT_DRAFT`, `NOT_PUBLISHED`, `NOT_SCHEDULED`, `NOT_CLAIMABLE`, `NO_RECIPIENTS`, `IMAGE_NOT_ALLOWED`, `SENDER_DOMAIN_ALREADY_SET`, `SENDER_DOMAIN_NOT_SET`, `DOMAIN_EXISTS`, `SENDER_DOMAIN_REJECTED`, `EMAIL_SERVICE_UNAVAILABLE`, `HUMAN_REQUIRED`, `LENGTH_REQUIRED`, `PAYLOAD_TOO_LARGE`
- `message` (string, required) — A human-readable explanation, often in Norwegian. For business rules it is usually suitable to show the customer.
- `requestId` (string, required) — The same value as the `X-Request-Id` response header. Search for it in the API log in LettBestilt Partner, and include it when you contact LettBestilt.
- `details` (any, optional) — Extra data for some codes, for example `issues` for `VALIDATION_FAILED`, the totals for `PRICE_CHANGED` or `requiredScope` for `INSUFFICIENT_SCOPE`.
