Output shape
One output item per input item containing the updated channel data.
The 'Name' parameter updates only the display name, not the unique channel name. When 'Simplify' is enabled, the response is unwrapped so each record is its own item. The record ID is always included in the output.

Channel: Marketing Team (list select), Name: 'Marketing Team Update', Description: 'New team description'.
Example 2: Update channel configuration settings using structured fields.
Channel: C123456, Config Input Mode: Using Fields Below, Reply Mode: Both, Add/Remove Notifications: Enable.
Example 3: Update channel settings and return raw API response.
