# diff.apply

> Apply a previously computed diff payload to the current document. The document fingerprint must match the diff base fingerprint. Omitted changeMode applies story content directly; explicit tracked mode governs all four story families (body, header/footer parts, footnotes, endnotes). Comments, styles, and numbering are always applied directly. Supported mixed full-diff payloads apply atomically across body, comments, styles, numbering, and header/footers. Unsupported/deferred families such as package-graph/media/hyperlink closure, settings/theme, and textboxes fail closed before mutation.



- Member path: `doc.diff.apply(…)`
- Mutates document: yes
- Idempotency: `conditional`
- Supports tracked mode: yes
- Supports dry run: no

## Expected result

Returns a DiffApplyResult with applied operation count and diagnostics.
