# Update Account

`PATCH /v0/accounts/{account_id}/update`

> Updates one account. Set `status` to `disabled` to stop the inbox from
> signing in at the provider again, or to `enabled` to re-enable it.
> Idempotent: disabling an already disabled account keeps its original
> `disabled_at`, and enabling an enabled account is a no-op.
>
> Find the `account_id` with List Accounts. An account exists only after an
> inbox's first sign-in at a provider, so it cannot be disabled in advance.
> A disable applies to that inbox at that provider whichever sign-in key is
> used: the provider's next authorization ends in `access_denied`, and a code
> issued earlier is refused with `invalid_grant`. Access tokens already
> issued stay valid until they expire, and the provider's own session is
> unaffected.
>
> Requires `account_update`, which sign-in keys (`type: public_key`) cannot
> hold, so call this with a bearer API key. An account outside the key's
> scope is a 404. A 409 means the account changed during the write; read it
> again and retry.
