# Upsert error recommendation

> Creates or fully replaces the error's recommendation (an error has at most one). Full-replace semantics like the error update: every field is taken from this request, so omitting annotationID reopens a resolved recommendation (the linked annotation IS the resolution).

Required API key permission: `observe:errors:write`.
