In your app

A controller answers a route on your app: it calls revertFaqItemDraftToPublished() and returns the answer.

Add the controller

app/controllers/revert_faq_item_draft_to_published_controller.ts

import { inject } from '@adonisjs/core'
import type { HttpContext } from '@adonisjs/core/http'
import { SiteClient } from '@fetchski/attract-cms-sdk'

@inject()
export default class RevertFaqItemDraftToPublishedController {
  constructor(protected site: SiteClient) {}

  async handle({ params }: HttpContext) {
    return this.site.faqItems().revertFaqItemDraftToPublished({ id: params.id })
  }
}

Add the route

start/routes.ts

import router from '@adonisjs/core/services/router'

const RevertFaqItemDraftToPublishedController = () => import('#controllers/revert_faq_item_draft_to_published_controller')

router.post('/faq-item/:id/revert-draft-to-published', [RevertFaqItemDraftToPublishedController])

Put it behind your auth middleware (.use(middleware.auth())): it acts with your key’s access.

Call it

Your own page’s form or script sends POST /faq-item/clx8m2k4p0000a1b2c3d4e5f6/revert-draft-to-published and gets back its answer as JSON. Test it, below, calls it.

Answers the draft (false when it had no changes to discard).

Find the id

id is the document’s _id, from a list. Ask the list for only the fields you need: each row is a document’s id and those fields.

AdonisJS

import app from '@adonisjs/core/services/app'
import { SiteClient } from '@fetchski/attract-cms-sdk'

const site = await app.container.make(SiteClient)
const row = (await site.faqItems().listFaqItemsPick(['title', 'slug'])).find((each) => each.slug === 'getting-started') // { id, title, slug }, or undefined

Pass row.id as id. Drafts: list with { aposMode: 'draft' } to get the draft’s id (Find an id).

Required parameters

One object, e.g. revertFaqItemDraftToPublished({ id }); leave out the optional fields.

string

required

Required. The document’s _id: a full id names its own locale and mode (the draft’s …:en:draft, the published one’s …:en:published; no aposMode needed), a bare aposDocId takes the request’s (aposLocale, aposMode).

Returns

FaqItem | false: the FaqItem, or false. FaqItem content type. Read its properties (faqItem.title): each says whether the site always sends it. The example answer is the site’s wire JSON: some keys differ from the property names (_id → id, _category → category).

string

Always sent. The question exactly as a visitor would ask it — it renders as the accordion row and in the page’s FAQ structured data.

RichTextMax1Area

Always sent. A RichTextMax1Area. Widgets, top to bottom: send { "items": [ … ] }, one object per widget with its type. Writing it replaces the whole area.

Show RichTextMax1Area

The fuller explanation shown under this entry on the Cookie Policy page. Plain language, no legalese — what is collected, why, and what declining costs the visitor. Widgets, top to bottom: send { "items": [ … ] }, one object per widget with its type. Writing it replaces the whole area.

AfterContentAreaMetaType

Sometimes sent: undefined when the site leaves it out. Always area. One of area; a newer site may send others, so keep a fallback.

string

Sometimes sent: undefined when the site leaves it out. The area’s id, set by the site: leave it out when you write one.

readonly RichTextWidget[]

Sometimes sent: undefined when the site leaves it out. A list of RichTextWidget. The widgets, top to bottom. Each is an object with its type and that widget’s own fields; _id and metaType may be left out (the site sets them). At most 1 items.

Show RichTextWidget

A @apostrophecms/rich-text widget: its type and its own fields. A field left out takes its default.

RichTextWidgetType

Always sent. The widget’s type: always @apostrophecms/rich-text. One of @apostrophecms/rich-text; a newer site may send others, so keep a fallback.

string

Sometimes sent: undefined when the site leaves it out. The widget’s id, unique on the page. Leave it out for a new widget (the site sets one); keep it to change a widget that is there.

MetaType

Sometimes sent: undefined when the site leaves it out. Always widget. One of widget; a newer site may send others, so keep a fallback.

string

Sometimes sent: undefined when the site leaves it out. The text as HTML, e.g. <h2>Our story</h2><p>It began with <strong>one</strong> idea.</p>. The site keeps the tags and styles this area’s editor offers (paragraphs, headings, bold, italic, links, lists…) and removes the rest.

CustomCSS | null

Sometimes sent: undefined when the site leaves it out, and it can be null. A CustomCSS. CSS for this one section, typed into the slot of the part it styles. It wins over Site design → Custom CSS. Nested rules like &:hover, @media (width >= 48rem) and [data-theme=“light”] & work inside a slot.

Show CustomCSS

Readonly<Record<string, string>>

Sometimes sent: undefined when the site leaves it out. The CSS typed into each part slot, by slot name.

string

Sometimes sent: undefined when the site leaves it out. The compiled CSS (read only: rebuilt from slots).

string

Sometimes sent: undefined when the site leaves it out. The site’s check mark for css (read only).

Readonly<Record<string, unknown>>

Always there: {} when there are none. Any keys the site sent that aren’t listed above (such as one added after this SDK was built), by their wire names, as sent. Pass this model to a write and they are sent too.

Readonly<Record<string, unknown>>

string

Always sent. The URL name: lowercase words joined by hyphens (letters outside a–z, even emoji, are kept).

string

Always sent. The document’s id. On a type with drafts it ends in its locale and mode (…:en:published, …:en:draft): the part before the first colon is its aposDocId, shared by both copies. The {_id} the type’s routes take.

string

Always sent. The document type’s name: always this type’s.

readonly Readonly<Record<string, unknown>>[] | null

Sometimes sent: undefined when the site leaves it out, and it can be null. Optional. FAQ sections can group questions under category subheadings and filter to specific categories. Manage the list under FAQ Categories. The related faq-category documents, in order (empty when none). To set it, send a list of { "_id": "…" }, one per document (one at most); a document the site can’t find is left out.

boolean | null

Sometimes sent: undefined when the site leaves it out, and it can be null. Hand-curation flag: FAQ sections can show only featured questions — e.g. a short top-questions block on the home page.

number | null

Sometimes sent: undefined when the site leaves it out, and it can be null. Questions are listed lowest number first — the explicit FAQ order.

Visibility | null

Sometimes sent: undefined when the site leaves it out, and it can be null. Select whether this content is public or private.

string | null

Sometimes sent: undefined when the site leaves it out, and it can be null. An ISO 8601 date and time, e.g. 2026-10-21T14:30:00.000Z.

string | null

Sometimes sent: undefined when the site leaves it out, and it can be null. An ISO 8601 date and time, e.g. 2026-10-21T14:30:00.000Z.

readonly FaqItemFaqFontOverridesItem[] | null

Sometimes sent: undefined when the site leaves it out, and it can be null. A list of FaqItemFaqFontOverridesItem. Optional. Set part of this question’s card in a different typeface. Leave empty to follow the section (and the site fonts).

Show FaqItemFaqFontOverridesItem

string

Sometimes sent: undefined when the site leaves it out. The row’s id, unique in its array.

Target | null

Sometimes sent: undefined when the site leaves it out, and it can be null. Which text this typeface replaces. Rows apply in order, so a broad row (Everything) followed by a narrow one (Headings) gives the section a base face plus an exception. One of all, heading, body, eyebrow, button, code; a newer site may send others, so keep a fallback.

Source | null

Sometimes sent: undefined when the site leaves it out, and it can be null. Where the typeface comes from. The first option costs nothing extra — those faces are already loaded. The others load an additional font on pages that use this section. One of slot, curated, cdn, upload; a newer site may send others, so keep a fallback.

Slot | null

Sometimes sent: undefined when the site leaves it out, and it can be null. Set in Site design → Typography. Following the site’s own faces keeps a section on-brand and adds no download. One of display, body, accent; a newer site may send others, so keep a fallback.

Curated | null

Sometimes sent: undefined when the site leaves it out, and it can be null. Vetted families from Bunny Fonts and Fontshare, with their available weights already verified. One of archivo, bricolage-grotesque, clash-display, courier-prime, dm-mono, dm-sans, fira-code, fraunces, general-sans, ibm-plex-mono, ibm-plex-sans, inconsolata, inter, jetbrains-mono, karla, lora, manrope, nunito-sans, outfit, playfair-display, public-sans, red-hat-mono, satoshi, sentient, sora, source-code-pro, source-sans-3, source-serif-4, space-grotesk, space-mono, spline-sans-mono, supreme, switzer, syne, ubuntu-mono, unbounded, victor-mono, work-sans, zodiak; a newer site may send others, so keep a fallback.

CdnProvider | null

Sometimes sent: undefined when the site leaves it out, and it can be null. Where to browse for the family. Pick one, then follow the link below to find the exact name. One of bunny, fontshare; a newer site may send others, so keep a fallback.

string

Sometimes sent: undefined when the site leaves it out. Exactly as the provider’s catalog spells it, e.g. “Space Grotesk” or “Clash Display”. A name the provider doesn’t have loads nothing and this row is ignored.

string

Sometimes sent: undefined when the site leaves it out. Comma-separated weights to load, e.g. 400, 700. Empty loads 400, 500, 700. Weights the family doesn’t ship are skipped by the CDN and synthesized by the browser (faux bold) — but a family that ships only ONE weight (Acme, for instance) loads nothing at all unless that weight is among these, so set it explicitly if the typeface doesn’t appear.

readonly FaqItemFaqFontOverridesItemUploadsItem[]

Sometimes sent: undefined when the site leaves it out. A list of FaqItemFaqFontOverridesItemUploadsItem. One file per weight/style of the SAME typeface. woff2 strongly recommended (smallest, universally supported); woff/ttf/otf also accepted. At most 4 items.

Show FaqItemFaqFontOverridesItemUploadsItem

Readonly<Record<string, unknown>>

Always sent. File attachment reference.

string

Sometimes sent: undefined when the site leaves it out. The row’s id, unique in its array.

Weight | null

Sometimes sent: undefined when the site leaves it out, and it can be null. Weight. One of 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, 700, 800, 900; a newer site may send others, so keep a fallback.

Style | null

Sometimes sent: undefined when the site leaves it out, and it can be null. Style. One of normal, italic; a newer site may send others, so keep a fallback.

Readonly<Record<string, unknown>>

Fallback | null

Sometimes sent: undefined when the site leaves it out, and it can be null. Generic system font shown while this typeface loads (and if it fails). Curated picks set this automatically. One of sans, serif, mono; a newer site may send others, so keep a fallback.

Readonly<Record<string, unknown>>

FaqCategorySource | null

Sometimes sent: undefined when the site leaves it out, and it can be null. Set automatically. Demo placeholders are removed the moment a real question is published.

string | null

Sometimes sent: undefined when the site leaves it out, and it can be null. Internal de-duplication key set by the demo seed.

boolean | null

Sometimes sent: undefined when the site leaves it out, and it can be null. In the archive: kept, but out of every list and off the site until it is restored. false (or null) for a live document.

Date | null

Sometimes sent: undefined when the site leaves it out, and it can be null. When it was created (ISO 8601).

Date | null

Sometimes sent: undefined when the site leaves it out, and it can be null. When it last changed (ISO 8601).

Sometimes sent: undefined when the site leaves it out, and it can be null. The draft’s preview share key, while its share link is on: the link is the draft’s _url with aposShareKey and aposShareId (the draft’s _id) in its query. Absent otherwise, and on published documents.

Errors

Nothing to catch: the SDK retries what is safe, and throws the rest as the classes below. Your exception handler turns them into your app’s own answers, once for every call (see Map SDK errors to responses); catch only what you want to react to here.

400

The site refused what was sent: errors lists each field’s problem, siteMessage the first.Retried first: No. Read: errors (field → messages), siteMessage.

401

The API key is missing or refused (malformed, revoked, expired), or a signature its signing mode needs is missing or stale.Retried first: No. Read: siteMessage, errorName, data.

403

The key may not do this: a scope it lacks, or an address outside its allowlist. siteMessage names it.Retried first: No. Read: siteMessage, errorName, data.

404

Nothing matches, or the caller may not see it.Retried first: No. Read: siteMessage, errorName, data.

500

The site failed. Its logs say why.Retried first: No: a write may have landed. Read: siteMessage, errorName, data.

no answer

No answer: DNS, a refused connection, TLS, or the timeout (15 s per attempt by default).Retried first: Only when nothing reached the site (neverConnected()); never after a timeout, when it may have landed. Read: reason, neverConnected.

not sent

The client refused to send it (e.g. a path segment of ..); the site never saw it.Retried first: No. Read: reason (what to change).

any other

Any other status, or a success whose JSON doesn’t match this SDK version’s types (update the SDK).Retried first: No. Read: reason, status.

setup

sites.forSite('acme') named a slug config/attract.ts doesn’t list (with the keys in the database: no row in attract_api_keys).Retried first: No: nothing was sent. Read: message, slug.

setup

The site’s entry is wrong: a malformed baseUrl or key, a key filed under another slug, or no default site. node ace attract:check names the fix.Retried first: No: nothing was sent. Read: message (what to fix).

Behavior

Access: an API key with content:faq-items:write (or a master above it: content:faq-items:all, content:all, admin:all). A signed-in person may call it as far as their own permissions allow; anyone else gets 403.
Rate limit: the key’s own writes-per-minute limit, set when the key is created (default 120); over it, 429 with Retry-After. The client waits and retries for you; you see RateLimited only if that runs out.
Retries: a write is sent again only after a 429 (refused before it acted) or when it never reached the site. After a timeout or a 5xx it may have landed: check before you send it again.
Timeout: 15 s per attempt by default; raise timeout (milliseconds) in config/attract.ts for longer.

Test it

It calls the controller above with the SDK faked: fakeAttract() puts the fake in the container for this one test, and it answers every call with a valid example, so nothing leaves your machine and no key is read. Save it as tests/unit/faq_items_revert_faq_item_draft_to_published.spec.ts, then run your tests:

tests/unit/faq_items_revert_faq_item_draft_to_published.spec.ts

import { test } from '@japa/runner'
import app from '@adonisjs/core/services/app'
import testUtils from '@adonisjs/core/services/test_utils'

import RevertFaqItemDraftToPublishedController from '#controllers/revert_faq_item_draft_to_published_controller'

test('faqItems.revertFaqItemDraftToPublished', async () => {
  const site = fakeAttract()

  const ctx = await testUtils.createHttpContext()
  ctx.params = { id: 'clx8m2k4p0000a1b2c3d4e5f6' }
  const controller = await app.container.make(RevertFaqItemDraftToPublishedController)
  await controller.handle(ctx)

  site.assertCalled('faqItems.revertFaqItemDraftToPublished', (args) => args.id === 'clx8m2k4p0000a1b2c3d4e5f6')
