+# Editgroup API Endpoint Prefixes
+
+In summary, change the API URL design such that entity mutations (create,
+update, delete) happen under the URL path of an editgroup, with the
+`editgroup_id` as a path component, instead of being REST actions on the
+canonical URL with `editgroup_id` as a query parameter.
+
+This is a fairly large/systemic breaking change, though it should not change
+code *structure* much (just argument order/passing), and requires no SQL
+changes. It may remove corner-case features (like non-auto match operations?).
+
+
+## Renamed API URLs
+
+For all entity types:
+
+    /editgroup/<editgroup_id>/release/<ident>
+        PUT: update_release(editgroup_id, ident, entity)
+        DELETE: delete_release(editgroup_id, ident)
+
+    /editgroup/<editgroup_id>/release
+        POST: create_release(editgroup_id, entity)
+
+    /editgroup/auto/release/batch
+        POST: create_release_auto_batch(editgroup, [entity])
+            => actually new ReleaseAutoBatch(editgroup, entity_list) body
+
+    /editgroup/<editgroup_id>/release/edit/<edit_uuid>
+        DELETE: delete_release_edit(editgroup_id, edit_uuid)
+
+
+## New Webface URLs
+
+    /editgroup/<editgroup_id>/release/<ident>
+        GET: shows the (potentially WIP) entity as of this editgroup
+
+    Some way to delete an edit from an editgroup
+
+
+## Future: New API URLs
+
+Will not actually implement these for now.
+
+For all entity types:
+
+    /editgroup/<editgroup_id>/release/<ident>
+        GET: get_editgroup_release(editgroup_id, ident) => entity revision
+
+    /editgroup/<editgroup_id>/release/batch
+        POST: create_release_batch([entity])
+
+
+## SCRATCH
+
+container
+creator
+file
+fileset
+webcapture
+release
+work
+
+per entity:
+x auto_batch type
+x create_* path and editgroup_id parameter
+x   delete old parameter
+x batch:
+x   url
+x   operationId
+x   new single parameter
+x   return type
+x put/delete
+x   new url section
+x   remove old editgroup_id parameters (2x)
+x delete edit
+x   new url section
+x   remove old edit_id
