Changing `filesystem` always resets the exclusions to the new mode's default; it also resets the scanned areas to the new mode's default, unless `content.included` is sent in the same request. `content.excluded` and the schedule are NOT edited here: exclusions stay a dashboard-only setting and the schedule cascades from the configuration. Switching `status` to `enabled` on a website not yet registered with the scanning provider answers **409**. Requires a full-access token (read-only tokens answer 403). An unknown `preset` id answers 422.
