- `oauth2`, oauth2, scopes: `privacy:write`

## Header parameters

- `announcePlatformSubprocessorChange.header.Idempotency-Key` (string, required) — A caller-chosen key making this request safe to retry. A replay of a completed request returns the recorded response with `Idempotency-Replayed: true`. Reusing a key for a different request is refused.
  - maxLength 255
- `announcePlatformSubprocessorChange.header.Quire-Version` (string, optional) — The dated API revision to serve this request at. Omitted, the request is served at the revision the credential was issued against. The response echoes the revision actually applied.
  - format `date`
