PATCH /v1/quotes/:id

If needed, the quote can be updated with changed or extra parameter. Each product has a minimum set of parameters requited to create a quote, but the may be extra parameters needed to bind the quote. If you didn’t provide all the parameters when creating the quote, you can provide them with this endpoint.

Once a quote has been created, the parameters can be modified. This may be required if the quote that was created has missing required fields.

Note, in some cases the response may have the status attribute set to require_authorization. In this case the quote will need to be submitted for authorisation before it can be bound. Please see Quotes: Submit for Authorisation for more details.

If you don’t provide all the parameters when you create the quote, then you can use the update quote endpoint. The response will let you know which parameters are still required with an array of keys in the missing_required_fields attribute on the response (see example above).
