UpdateCustomer Service Operation - Customer Management
Updates the details of the specified customer.
Note
Only a user with Super Admin credentials can update customers. For more information, see the User Roles technical guide.
Because the update operation requires the time stamp of the most recent customer write operation, you must first call the GetCustomer operation. The GetCustomer operation returns the customer's data, which includes the time stamp. The update call will fail if you use an old time stamp e.g., the customer data is updated by your application or another application after you obtained the time stamp.
Because the update operation completely overwrites the existing customer data, the customer data must contain all required data; otherwise, the operation will fail.
Request Elements
The UpdateCustomerRequest object defines the body and header elements of the service operation request. The elements must be in the same order as shown in the Request SOAP.
Note
Unless otherwise noted below, all request elements are required.
Request Body Elements
| Element | Description | Data Type |
|---|---|---|
| Customer | A customer object that contains the updated customer information. This operation overwrites the existing customer data with the contents of the customer object that you pass. This operation performs a full update, and not a partial update. The Customer object must contain the time stamp value from the last time that the Customer object was written to. To ensure that the time stamp contains the correct value, call the GetCustomer operation. You can then update the customer data as appropriate, and call UpdateCustomer. |
