You can PUT a partial or full object to the detail endpoint to update/change values on the Proxy object. If using a partial object, you must insure that the primary proxy id is part of the payload.

Disabling / enabling a proxy

Disabling a proxy

To disable an active proxy and clear all cache references to the domain, use the DELETE method on the Proxy detail endpoint.

DELETE /api/v2/proxies/:id/

Enabling a proxy

To enable a currently disabled proxy, you will set the param for deleted to False using the Proxy update endpoint.
