Update domain redirect

PATCH /api/v2/domains/{id}/redirects/{ruleId}

Partially update a saved URL redirect rule.

Get {id} from GET /api/v2/domains data[].id and {ruleId} from GET /api/v2/domains/{id}/redirects rules[].id.

All request fields are optional, but at least one meaningful field should be sent.

If sourceUrl is changed, its host must still belong to the same domain.

sourceUrl and targetUrl may use Unicode IDN hostnames or punycode; responses return IDN hostnames in Unicode form.

Use enabled: false to pause a redirect without deleting it; use DELETE only when the rule should be removed.

Absent includeSubpaths/preservePath keep the stored values.

A target that the rule itself matches (for example root_www on example.com with includeSubpaths: true and target https://www.example.com/) is rejected with 400 invalid_request and errors[].code: "redirect_loop" on /targetUrl.
