# Change the review

`PATCH https://api.markdrop.in/api/v1/meetings/backfill/{job_id}`

Before the import starts: per row (`rows: [{id, title?, date?, series?, include?}]`) its name, date (YYYY-MM-DD, not in the future), series (`null` for none) and whether it's imported; and the `quiet` and `restricted` switches. A duplicate of a meeting already here can't be included.

- **Authentication:** API token required: `Authorization: Bearer mdk_…`.
- **Rate limit:** 120 per minute per IP address.
- **Guide:** [Import past meetings](https://docs.markdrop.in/workspaces/meetings-import#import-past-meetings)

## Path parameters

- `job_id` (string, required)

## Request body

`application/json`, required.

- `quiet` (boolean)
- `restricted` (boolean)
- `rows` (array of object): Up to 200 items.
  - `id` (string, required): Up to 20 characters.

  - `date` (string): Up to 10 characters.
  - `series` (string): Up to 60 characters.

## Responses

- `200`: OK.
