Inventory Item → Update Inventory Item
AI-generatedSummary
Updates an existing Autotask Inventory Item by sending a PATCH request with the item ID in the body.
Inputs
- entityId (required) — Numeric ID of the inventory item to update.
- payloadJson (required) — JSON object containing fields to update. The entityId is automatically merged into the request body (Autotask requires the ID in the PATCH body, not the URL).
- requestOptions — Optional collection of headers. Currently supports 'impersonationResourceId' to override the credential default.
Output shape
A single record representing the updated inventory item.
The returned item includes all fields (including unchanged ones).
