# Update a dataset

`PATCH /v2/datasets/{dataset_id}`

Update a dataset

## Path parameters

- `dataset_id` union, required — The unique identifier of the dataset
  - string
  - string, ulid — The id of the resource

## Request body

- object
  - `display_name` string — The display name of the dataset
  - `project_id` union — The unique identifier of the project it belongs to
    - string
    - string, ulid — The id of the resource
  - `path` string — Entity storage path. With workspace-level API keys, use the format `project/folder/subfolder/...`. The first element must be the display name of an existing project, followed by nested folders (auto-created as needed). Example: `Default Project/agents`. With project-level API keys, the project is predetermined by the API key, so the path is relative to that project. Example: `agents`. For backward compatibility, a leading project name is ignored when it matches the scoped project.

## Response `200`
