Templates

Edit a template

Edit an existing template's content and re-submit it to Meta for review. The request body is components-only — send the FULL desired components array (Meta replaces all components at once; this is a replacement, not a partial patch). name, language, and category cannot change. Use ?language= to disambiguate when a name has multiple languages. Only templates already reviewed by Meta (approved / rejected) can be edited — a pending template returns 409 template_not_editable. On success the template re-enters Meta review, so the returned status is pending; poll GET /{phone_number_id}/templates/{name} for the eventual transition. Meta enforces its own edit rate limits (APPROVED: 10 edits / 30 days or 1 / 24h; rejected/paused unlimited) and surfaces them as 429 / 400.
