Business Logic

This API updates an existing file object.

The file update process manages modifications to existing files while maintaining data integrity and consistency. The process steps are:

  1. Field Protection:

    • Critical fields are protected from modification (UUID, physical path, parent references, etc.)

    • System-generated values remain immutable (file size, generation date, author, etc.)

    • Directory structure relationships are preserved

  2. Data Consistency:

    • Validates the modified file properties

    • Automatically sets modification timestamp and editor information

  3. Saving:

    • Updates all the modi

    • Automatically sets modification timestamp and editor information

This controlled update mechanism ensures that file modifications maintain system integrity while allowing legitimate changes to user-modifiable properties.
