Feature flags

curl --request POST \
  'https://api.split.io/internal/api/v2/changeRequests/ws/{workspace-id}/environments/{environment_id}' \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --header 'Authorization: Bearer ADMIN_API_KEY' \
  --data '{
    "split": {
      "name": "your_feature_flag_name",
      "treatments": [
        {"name": "on"},
        {"name": "off"}
      ],
      "defaultTreatment": "off",

	"title":"Some CR Title",
	"comment":"Some CR Comment",
	"approvers":["[email protected]"]
}
'
Archive Operation Type

The ARCHIVE operation type is retained for historical compatibility and represents a removal operation in this context.

Large segments

Open Change Request to remove all members from a Large segment

curl --location --request POST
   'https://api.split.io/internal/api/v2/changeRequests/ws/{workspace-id}/environments/{environment_id}' \

Archive Operation Type

The ARCHIVE operation type is a legacy operation label and does not archive the Large segment resource itself.

Open Change Request to add members to a Large segment

curl --location --request POST
   'https://api.split.io/internal/api/v2/changeRequests/ws/{workspace-id}/environments/{environment_id}' \

       "title":"Create a new Large Segment version",
       "comment":"Change Request for upload user IDs (keys). This will create a new Large Segment version.",
       "approvers":[]
}'

The response will provide parameters that you will use to build the upload request.

Example of the response:

{
  "split": null,
  "segment": null,
  "largeSegment": {
    "id": "92b06147-98a8-11ef-a769-4a39a217f312",
    "name": "large_segment_name",
    "environment": {
      "id": "0a7f1900-9897-11ef-b6ae-12ee244cfa63",

  "approvers": [],
  "operationType": "UPLOAD",
  "comments": [],
  "rolloutStatus": null,
  "rolloutStatusTimestamp": null,
  "transactionMetadata": {
    "headers": {
      "Host": [
        "HOST HEADER"
      ]
    },
    "txId": "a9b2fd3b-98b2-11ef-97df-7e0035b4bcdb",
    "transactionDetails": {
      "status": "AWAITING_UPLOAD",
      "countDiff": 0,
      "totalKeys": 0,
      "changeNumber": 0,
      "processedSize": 0,

    },
    "method": "PUT",
    "url": "UPLOAD URL"
  }
}

The UPLOAD URL has 5 minutes time to live (TTL). The url must be used within this 5 minute time window, before the url expires.

Use the UPLOAD URL and HOST HEADER values to prepare the upload request to upload a CSV file.

curl --location --request PUT 'UPLOAD URL' \
--header 'Host: HOST HEADER' \
-T'large_segment.csv'
