}
Update an identity’s name and timezone. You can modify these fields at any time after creation.
Identity type cannot be changed: The type field (standard or engagement) is set during creation and cannot be modified via the update endpoint. If you need to change an identity’s type, you must:
  1. Delete the existing identity using the Delete an Identity endpoint
  2. Create a new identity with the desired type using the Create an Identity endpoint
Before deleting an identity to change its type, make sure to:
  • Note any connected integrations (you’ll need to reconnect them to the new identity)
  • Consider the impact on any scheduled actions or workflows
  • Be aware that deleting an engagement identity may affect your monthly billing cycle
