Code:
sed: -e expression #1, char 45: unknown option to `s'

${NEW_ENDPOINT} has / inserted in it and when it gets expanded sed sees
s/eai.endpoint.url=*/eai.endpoint.url=http://www.endpoint.com/API/g
The slashes in the URI gets confused with the delimiters.
Escaping them in the variable assignment might work as intended.
Code:
NEW_ENDPOINT='eai.endpoint.url=http:\/\/www.endpoint.com\/API'

There is a subtle issue as well.
Code:
CAC_ENDPOINT="eai.endpoint.url=*"

The * is a pattern matching for the shell and it gets interpreted by it. This variable might end up having assigned the name of every file in the directory that would match that. Furthermore, if it makes it as just a string, when it gets converted as a regex in sed, it only means match the following chars: eai followed by any char except the newline followed by endpoint(these are individual chars), followed by any character except the newline, followed by url, followed by one or many = or none.

NAME
di_link_next_by_node, di_link_next_by_lnode - libdevinfo link traversal functions SYNOPSIS
cc [ flag... ] file... -ldevinfo [ library... ] #include <libdevinfo.h> di_link_t di_link_next_by_node(di_lnode_t node, di_link_t link, uint_t endpoint); di_link_t di_link_next_by_lnode(di_node_t lnode, di_link_t link, uint_t endpoint); PARAMETERS
link The handle to the current the link or DI_LINK_NIL. endpoint Specify which endpoint of the link the node or lnode should correspond to, either DI_LINK_TGT or DI_LINK_SRC. node The device node with which the link is associated. lnode The lnode with which the link is associated. DESCRIPTION
The di_link_next_by_node() function returns a handle to the next link that has the same endpoint node as link. If link is DI_LINK_NIL, a handle is returned to the first link whose endpoint specified by endpoint matches the node specified by node. The di_link_next_by_lnode() function returns a handle to the next link that has the same endpoint lnode as link. If link is DI_LINK_NIL, a handle is returned to the first link whose endpoint specified by endpoint matches the lnode specified by lnode. RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion, a handle to the next link is returned. Otherwise, DI_LINK_NIL is returned and errno is set to indicate the error. ERRORS
The di_link_next_by_node() and di_link_next_by_lnode() functions will fail if: EINVAL An argument is invalid. ENXIO The end of the link list has been reached. The di_link_next_by_node() function will fail if: ENOTSUP Device usage information is not available in snapshot. ATTRIBUTES
