### Overview



Update the order of your archives. Since logs are processed sequentially, reordering an archive may change the structure and content of the data processed by other archives.

**Note**: Using the `PUT` method updates your archive's order by replacing the current order with the new one.
This endpoint requires the `logs_write_archives` permission.


### Request

#### Body Data (required)

An object containing the new ordered list of archive IDs.
