## Guild header collapse configuration object
The instance rollout of how a client draws the guild banner above the channel list. [Experiments](/http-api/experiments/) defines what a client resolves from it.
### Structure
| Field | Type | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| enabled | boolean | Whether the rollout runs at all (default false) |
| config_version | integer | Revision counter, raised by Fluxer and never accepted from a request |
| rollout_basis_points | integer | Share of accounts drawn, in basis points (0-10000, default 0) |
| rollout_salt | string | Salt of the sampling hash (1-64 characters, default `guild-header-collapse-v1`) |
| included_user_ids | array[snowflake] | Accounts always drawn, up to 1000 entries (default empty) |
| excluded_user_ids | array[snowflake] | Accounts never drawn, up to 1000 entries (default empty) |
Every field is present on read. An absent document or missing field uses the defaults above.
`excluded_user_ids` is applied before `included_user_ids`, so an account in both is never drawn. A drawn client reduces the banner to the height of the header as the channel list scrolls down, and a client that is not drawn keeps the fixed banner height it ships with. Neither arm changes any response this API produces.
How often a client revalidates this rollout is set once for every experiment in the [experiment delivery configuration](#experiment-delivery-configuration-object) above.

An experiment is an instance-wide rollout that an operator configures. For each account, Fluxer works out from that configuration whether the account is in the rollout and which settings the account receives. The single route on this page resolves every experiment the server defines and returns them in one envelope, together with the polling cadence they share. This server defines `voice_noise_suppression`, whose placement protocol [Voice](/voice/) defines, `message_hover_tracking`, which selects one of two client implementations of the message hover state, `message_keyboard_focus`, which selects one of two client implementations of keyboard navigation in the message list, `blocked_message_groups`, which selects how a client renders a revealed block of blocked messages, `guild_activity_log_presentation`, which selects one of two client renderings of the community activity log, and `expression_info_card`, which selects what a client shows for an emoji or a sticker in a message.

The disabled value is the first [resolution outcome](#resolution-outcomes) below, which reports `enabled` false and the stored `config_version`, so a client that compares `config_version` with the value from its previous response can see that an operator saved the configuration, even while the rollout stays disabled, and needs no second request for it.

## Guild header collapse assignment object
One resolution of the instance guild header collapse rollout against one account. Every field is present whenever the key is written.
The rollout selects how a client draws the guild banner above the channel list. A drawn client reduces that banner to the height of the header as the channel list scrolls down and returns it to full height as the list scrolls back up. A client that is not drawn keeps the fixed banner height it ships with. A guild without a banner has the same header in either arm. Neither arm changes what the API returns, and no route reports which arm a client ran.
### Structure
| Field | Type | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| enabled | boolean | Whether the rollout is running on this instance |
| config_version | integer | The revision of the instance configuration this assignment was resolved from |
| user_targeted | boolean | Whether the caller is inside the rollout |
| source | ?string | Which rule targeted the caller, one of `user_rule` or `canary`, and null where the caller is not targeted |
### Guild header collapse resolution outcomes
The outcomes below set `user_targeted` to false, and they differ in what else they report.
1. The rollout is off. `enabled` is false and `source` is null.
2. The operator has excluded the caller. `enabled` is true and `source` is null.
3. The caller was not drawn. `enabled` is true and `source` is null.
A caller is drawn either by the operator's allowlist, which sets `source` to `user_rule`, or by the sampled share of the account population, which sets `source` to `canary`. The blocklist is read before the allowlist, so an account named in both is not drawn.
`config_version` reports the stored revision in all outcomes, the rollout being off included. A client branches on `user_targeted` alone.
