- Modelers can use this endpoint on connections that have exactly one shared model
- Connection Admins can use this endpoint on any connection they are an admin of, whether the connection has one or multiple models

Depending on whether the Branch-based schema refresh setting is configured:
- If Branch-based schema refresh is enabled, the
branch_idquery parameter is required. Thebranch_idis validated against the shared model. - If Branch-based schema refresh isn’t enabled, do not provide the
branch_idparameter. The API will return a400error in this case.
