# commit-editing-transaction

Save draft edits from an editing transaction to the design.

Use `commit-editing-transaction` to persist edits from an open transaction. If the transaction isn't committed, the edits are discarded.

## Example prompt

*"Save those changes."*

Pass the `transaction_id`.

## Example response

IDs and tokens below are placeholders; field names and structure are exactly as returned.

```json
{
  "transaction": { "id": "TXN_EXAMPLE", "status": "committed" }
}
```

A `status` of `committed` confirms the edits are saved.

NOTE: Commit can fail if the design is edited concurrently (for example, a person editing in the browser) during your transaction. Retrying the same transaction won't help, because its snapshot is stale. Cancel it, start a fresh transaction, re-apply, and commit.
