POST /ariel/searches/{search_id}

Updates an Ariel search.

Updates details for an Ariel search. You can update searches in the following ways:

To cancel an active search, set the status parameter to CANCELED. This stops the search and keeps any search results that were collected before the search was canceled.
The results for a completed search can be saved by setting the save_results parameter to true. This ensures that the search is not automatically removed when it expires in accordance with the retention policy.

The Ariel server uses an internal retention policy to manage available disk space. Searches might be deleted automatically, according to the settings of the retention policy. Searches with saved results are not automatically reclaimed by the server and are therefore retained. A search can be explicitly deleted by using the DELETE /searches/{search_id} endpoint.

Saving too many search results might result in insufficient disk space to process new searches.
