This endpoint allows you to publish a new version of an existing extractor. Publishing a new version creates a snapshot of the extractor's current configuration and makes it available for use in workflows. Publishing a new version does not automatically update existing workflows using this extractor. You may need to manually update workflows to use the new version if desired.
