Use the appropriate heading levels for your book.
Add anchors for each section.
FYI: The section titles use attributes in case those terms change.
////
[[spaces-api-copy-saved-objects-request]]
==== {api-request-title}
////
This section show the basic endpoint, without the body or optional parameters.
Variables should use <...> syntax.
If an API supports both PUT and POST, include both here.
////
`POST /api/spaces/_copy_saved_objects`
`POST /s/<space_id>/api/spaces/_copy_saved_objects`
////
[[spaces-api-copy-saved-objects-prereqs]]
==== {api-prereq-title}
////
////
Optional list of prerequisites.
For example:
* A snapshot of an index created in 5.x can be restored to 6.x. You must...
* If the {es} {security-features} are enabled, you must have `write`, `monitor`,
and `manage_follow_index` index privileges...
////
[[spaces-api-copy-saved-objects-desc]]
==== {api-description-title}
Copy saved objects between spaces.
It also allows you to automatically copy related objects, so when you copy a `dashboard`, this can automatically copy over the
associated visualizations, index patterns, and saved searches, as required.
You can request to overwrite any objects that already exist in the target space if they share an ID, or you can use the
<<spaces-api-resolve-copy-saved-objects-conflicts, Resolve copy saved objects conflicts API>> to do this on a per-object basis.
////
Add a more detailed description the context.
Link to related APIs if appropriate.
Guidelines for parameter documentation
***************************************
* Use a definition list.
* End each definition with a period.
* Include whether the parameter is Optional or Required and the data type.
* Include default values as the last sentence of the first paragraph.
* Include a range of valid values, if applicable.
* If the parameter requires a specific delimiter for multiple values, say so.
* If the parameter supports wildcards, ditto.
* For large or nested objects, consider linking to a separate definition list.
***************************************
////
[[spaces-api-copy-saved-objects-path-params]]
==== {api-path-parms-title}
////
A list of all the parameters within the path of the endpoint (before the query string (?)).
For example:
`<follower_index>`::
(Required, string) Name of the follower index
////
`space_id`::
(Optional, string) Identifies the source space from which saved objects will be copied. If `space_id` is not specified in the URL, the default space is used.
////
[[spaces-api-copy-saved-objects-params]]
==== {api-query-parms-title}
////
////
A list of the parameters in the query string of the endpoint (after the ?).
For example:
`wait_for_active_shards`::
(Optional, integer) Specifies the number of shards to wait on being active before
responding. A shard must be restored from the leader index being active.
Restoring a follower shard requires transferring all the remote Lucene segment
files to the follower index. The default is `0`, which means waiting on none of
the shards to be active.
////
[[spaces-api-copy-saved-objects-request-body]]
==== {api-request-body-title}
////
A list of the properties you can specify in the body of the request.
For example:
`remote_cluster`::
(Required, string) The <<modules-remote-clusters,remote cluster>> that contains
the leader index.
`leader_index`::
(Required, string) The name of the index in the leader cluster to follow.
////
`spaces` ::
(Required, string array) The ids of the spaces the specified object(s) will be copied into.
`objects` ::
(Required, object array) The saved objects to copy.
`type` :::
(Required, string) The saved object type.
`id` :::
(Required, string) The saved object id.
`includeReferences` ::
(Optional, boolean) When set to `true`, all saved objects related to the specified saved objects will also be copied into the target spaces. The default value is `false`.
`overwrite` ::
(Optional, boolean) When set to `true`, all conflicts will be automatically overidden. If a saved object with a matching `type` and `id` exists in the target space, then that version will be replaced with the version from the source space. The default value is `false`.
[[spaces-api-copy-saved-objects-response-body]]
==== {api-response-body-title}
////
Response body is only required for detailed responses.
For example:
`auto_follow_stats`::
(object) An object representing stats for the auto-follow coordinator. This
object consists of the following fields:
`auto_follow_stats.number_of_successful_follow_indices`:::
(long) the number of indices that the auto-follow coordinator successfully
followed
...
////
`<space_id>`::
(object) Specifies the dynamic keys that are included in the response. An object describing the result of the copy operation for this particular space.
`success`:::
(boolean) Indicates if the copy operation was successful. Note that some objects may have been copied even if this is set to `false`. Consult the `successCount` and `errors` properties of the response for additional information.
`successCount`:::
(number) The number of objects that were successfully copied.
`errors`:::
(Optional, array) Collection of any errors that were encountered during the copy operation. If any errors are reported, then the `success` flag will be set to `false`.
`id`::::
(string) The saved object id which failed to copy.
`type`::::
(string) The type of saved object which failed to copy.
`error`::::
(object) The error which caused the copy operation to fail.
`type`:::::
(string) Indicates the type of error. May be one of: `conflict`, `unsupported_type`, `missing_references`, `unknown`. Errors marked as `conflict` may be resolved by using the <<spaces-api-resolve-copy-saved-objects-conflicts, Resolve copy saved objects conflicts API>>.
////
[[spaces-api-copy-saved-objects-response-codes]]
==== {api-response-codes-title}
////
////
Response codes are only required when needed to understand the response body.
For example:
`200`::
Indicates all listed indices or index aliases exist.
`404`::
Indicates one or more listed indices or index aliases **do not** exist.
////
[[spaces-api-copy-saved-objects-example]]
==== {api-examples-title}
////
Optional brief example.
Use an 'Examples' heading if you include multiple examples.

The following example attempts to copy a dashboard with id `my-dashboard`, including all references from the `default` space to the `marketing` and `sales` spaces. The `marketing` space succeeds, while the `sales` space fails due to a conflict on the underlying index pattern:
