# Update an asset

`PUT /api/v1/assets/{id}`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.growomat.com`
- URL: `https://api.growomat.com/api/v1/assets/{id}`
- Auth: HTTP bearer

Partial update of the descriptive fields: `name`, `altText`, `tags`, `metadata`, `status`, `width` and `height`. The URL and content type of an asset cannot change; create a new asset instead.

**Errors**

- `404 NOT_FOUND`: no asset with this id in the active Space.
- `400 VALIDATION_ERROR`: the body failed validation; `details.issues[]` names each field.

## Path parameters

- `id` string, required

## Headers

- `X-Space-Id` string

## Request body

- AssetUpdate: The fields of an asset that can change after creation. The URL, content type and size cannot; create a new asset instead.
  - `name` string: Display name.
  - `altText` string: Alternative text describing the image.
  - `tags` string[]: Free-form tags.
  - `metadata` object: Anything else you want to keep with the asset.
  - `status` 'PROCESSING' | 'READY' | 'FAILED': Processing state.
  - `width` integer: Width in pixels.
  - `height` integer: Height in pixels.

## Response `200`

OK. The result is in `data`. List responses also carry `meta` with `nextCursor` and `total`.

- SuccessEnvelope: The shape of every successful response.
  - `data` unknown, required
  - `meta` object: Present on list responses.
    - `nextCursor` union: Pass as `cursor` to get the next page. `null` on the last page.
      - string
      - number
    - `total` integer: Number of items in this page.

## Other responses

- `400`: The request is malformed or fails validation. `error.code` is `VALIDATION_ERROR` (with `details.issues[]` naming each field), `INVALID_REQUEST` (the body is not valid JSON or has the wrong shape), or one of the specific codes listed in this operation's description.
- `401`: The bearer token is missing, invalid, expired or revoked (`INVALID_TOKEN`).
- `403`: The token lacks the scope this operation needs (`INSUFFICIENT_SCOPE`), the plan is read-only (`READ_ONLY_MODE`), or the caller is not a member of the Space named in `X-Space-Id` (`NOT_A_MEMBER`).
- `404`: No such resource in the active Space (`NOT_FOUND`), or `X-Space-Id` names a Space that does not exist (`SPACE_NOT_FOUND`).
- `409`: The request conflicts with the current state, for example a delete blocked by dependents or a sync already running. This operation's description names the `error.code` values it can return.
- `429`: Too many requests (`RATE_LIMITED`). Wait for the number of seconds in the `Retry-After` header, then retry.
