An SMS object can be updated using either a PATCH or PUT request.

  • A PATCH request can be used to update one or more attribute values. When using a PATCH request, only the attributes specified in the request payload will be updated, all other attributes and values will remain the same. The message secure ID is passed in the query URL, and the values to be modified are passed in the request body.

  • A PUT request can be used to update an entire SMS object. The message secure ID is passed in the query URL, and the entire SMS object is passed in the request body.
