A question mark (?) next to the key name means the key is optional - it may be omitted in API responses. A question mark next to the key type means the key is nullable - API responses may return null for that key, instead of the specified type.
In PATCH endpoints, all keys are optional. However, providing an object with no keys (or no valid keys) will result in 500 internal server error.
Privacy objects (privacy key in models) contain values "private" or "public". Patching a privacy value to null will set to public. If you do not have access to view the privacy object of the member, the value of the privacy key will be null, rather than the values of individual privacy keys.
Notes on IDs
Every PluralKit entity has two IDs: a short (5-character) ID and a longer UUID. The short ID is unique across the resource (a member can have the same short ID as a system, for example), while the UUID is consistent for the lifetime of the entity and globally unique across the bot.
