POST <baseApiUrl>/public/core/v3/checkin
Content-Type: application/json
Accept: application/json
INFA-SESSION-ID: <sessionId>

{
  "objects": [
    {
      "id": "3iWWHkLbM2giVppBmJmZgV",
      "includeContainerAssets": true
    }
  ],
  "summary": "Revised mappings",
  "description": "Revised m_custArch and m_custNew"
}

To request a check-in operation for an asset using the path and object type, you might send a request that's similar to the following example:

POST <baseApiUrl>/public/core/v3/checkin
Content-Type: application/json
Accept: application/json
INFA-SESSION-ID: <sessionId>

{
  "objects": [
    {
      "path": [
        "Default",
        "Test_Mapping"
      ],
      "type": "DTEMPLATE"
    }
  ]
}
