API Definitions - Updating the API endpoint hostnames requires replacing the whole API Definition

[vkolorizos]

Hello,

Currently, according to the API Definition OpenAPI schema, when trying to update the hostnames on a new version of an API Endpoint the method requires to provide all details of the API Definition and not just the required values, which is correct according to REST principles since it's a PUT request, but these raises some concerns since we will need to provide also the schema and multiple other fields, which might lead to unintended changes.

In a nutshell, I feel this is neither efficient nor safe way to go, so maybe a specific-purpose PATCH request should be created to just update what part of the API endpoint someone wants or specific PATCH request for adding/removing hostnames like it exists already in Properties:

Let me know, what you think

Thanks
