# Update a data loading process

`PUT /gdc/projects/{projectId}/dataload/processes/{processId}`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://secure.gooddata.com`
- URL: `https://secure.gooddata.com/gdc/projects/{projectId}/dataload/processes/{processId}`
- Auth: none declared

For a process for a CloudConnect graph, do the following before making this call:
1. Archive or zip the entire CloudConnect Project that you want to upload and name it **upload.zip**. The ZIP file must be smaller than 5 MB.
2. Upload the archive or zip file to your GoodData [user-specific storage](https://help.gooddata.com/display/doc/User+Specific+Data+Storage).


This is a sample request for updating a process of the GRAPH type.
```
{
    "process" : {
        "type": "GRAPH",
        "name": "{process_name}",
        "path": "{path/to/archive.zip}"
    }
}
```
This is a sample request for updating a process of the ETL type.
```
{
    "process": {
        "type": "ETL",
        "name": "{process_name}",
        "component": {
            "name": "{brick}",
            "version": "1",
            "configLocation": {
                "s3": {
                    "path": "s3://{bds_bucket}/{path/to/configuration}/",
                    "accessKey": "{s3_access_key}",
                    "secretKey": "{s3_secret_key}",
                    "region": "us-east-1",
                    "serverSideEncryption": true
                }
            }
        },
        "dataSources": [
            {
                "id": "{data_source_01_id}"

            {
                "id": "{data_source_02_id}"
            }
        ]
    }
}

`executables` lists executables (CloudConnect graphs / Ruby scripts / Groovy scripts) in the uploaded zip file.
