# Update work category

`PATCH /v1/work-categories/{id}`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.officina.it`
- URL: `https://api.officina.it/v1/work-categories/{id}`
- Auth: HTTP bearer

Renames the work category. When another category already has that
name (ignoring case) the response is `409 conflict`.

## Request body

- object
  - `name` string, required

## Response `200`

success

## Other responses

- `401`: Missing, malformed, expired, or wrong-audience bearer token.
- `402`: The company has no active subscription, or its plan does not include API access. API access is included in the Business and Illimitato plans.
- `403`: The authenticated user lacks the required permission.
- `404`: Resource does not exist OR belongs to a different company. The two cases are intentionally indistinguishable.
- `409`: The request conflicts with the current state of the resource. Examples: issuing an invoice that has already been issued; back-dating an issuance that would violate the monotonic per-company sequence; deleting a credit note whose SDI electronic counterpart has already been transmitted and cannot be retracted; mutating a worksheet whose linked invoice has been issued (the worksheet is frozen — its totals are now part of the issued invoice's accounting record and must not desync).
- `422`: A request field is missing or invalid (fast-fail).
- `500`: Unhandled server error. Detail is logged, not exposed.
