Update a Target
Omitted fields keep their current values. Supplied config and checks replace their complete stored values. Change Deliveries with createDelivery, updateDelivery, and deleteDelivery. With Project auto_generate enabled, changing Target config or checks queues that Target's Generation. A queued or running Target reuses that Generation. Omitting If-Match applies the update to the current resource; with If-Match, a stale ETag returns 412 precondition_failed without saving. Select the next version through PATCH /drafts/{draft_id} on the Target's draft_id.
A 409 target_busy means the Target is publishing; wait for it to finish. A 409 delivery_conflict means another Target owns the requested repository tree; retrieve both Targets, choose a free destination, and retry.
A 502 follow_up_failed means the update was saved, but retiring an obsolete review or regenerating the Target failed. Retrieve the Target and follow the error's retryable and suggested_action fields.
See conditional writes for ETag and If-Match.

Delete a Target DELETE
Deletes a Target with no Generation history, release history, or active Draft. A `409 resource_has_dependencies` means one of those resources still depends on it. Retrieve the Target, disable it instead, or resolve the dependency before retrying. See [conditional writes](https://typeship.dev/docs/typeship-api#conditional-writes) for ETag and If-Match.
