Update Knowledge Connector Documents

Exclude connector documents from knowledge search or restore previously excluded documents. Only documents produced by the selected connector can change. A workspace API key is rejected with 403; use a personal API key.

PATCH/api/v2/knowledge/{id}/connectors/{connectorId}/documents
X-API-Key<token>

Your Sim API key, personal or workspace-scoped. Generate one under Settings, then API Keys. Operations that reject workspace keys say so in their own description.
