# Update Account

PATCH https://api.agentmail.to/v0/accounts/{account_id}/update
Content-Type: application/json

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.

Reference: https://docs.agentmail.to/api-reference/accounts/update

## Authentication

- `Authorization` header (bearer token, required) — Bearer authentication of the form `Bearer <token>`, where token is your auth token.

## Servers

- `https://api.agentmail.to` (prod, default)
- `https://x402.api.agentmail.to` (prod-x402)
- `https://mpp.api.agentmail.to` (prod-mpp)
- `https://api.agentmail.eu` (eu-prod)

## Request

### Path parameters

- `account_id` (UUID, required) — ID of account.

### Body (application/json)

This endpoint expects an object.

- `status` (enum, optional) — Status to set. `disabled` stops the inbox from signing in at the provider; `enabled` re-enables it. An enabled account reads back with no `status`.
  - Allowed values: `enabled`, `disabled`

## Response

### 200

- `account_id` (UUID, required) — ID of account.
- `provider_id` (UUID, required) — ID of provider.
- `inbox_id` (string, required) — The ID of the inbox.
- `pod_id` (string, required) — ID of pod.
- `organization_id` (string, required) — ID of organization.
- `first_signed_in_at` (datetime, required) — Time of first sign-in at provider.
- `last_signed_in_at` (datetime, required) — Time of most recent sign-in at provider.
- `sign_in_count` (integer, required) — Number of sign-ins at provider.
- `provider_name` (string, optional) — Display name of provider.
- `status` (enum, optional) — Present only while the account is disabled. Absent means the inbox may sign in.
  - Allowed values: `disabled`
- `disabled_at` (datetime, optional) — Time at which the account was disabled. Present only while `status` is `disabled`.

## Errors

### 400 Validation Error

- `name` (string, required) — Name of error.
- `errors` (any, required) — Validation errors. Each entry has a path and a message identifying the invalid field.
- `code` (string, optional) — Stable, machine-readable error code in snake_case (for example, not_found or missing_permission). Branch on this rather than the message text.
- `message` (string, optional) — Error message.
- `fix` (string, optional) — The concrete next action that resolves the error.
- `docs` (string, optional) — Link to the error reference entry for this code.

### 404 Not Found Error

- `name` (string, required) — Name of error.
- `message` (string, required) — Error message.
- `code` (string, optional) — Stable, machine-readable error code in snake_case (for example, not_found or missing_permission). Branch on this rather than the message text.

### 409 Conflict Error

- `name` (string, required) — Name of error.
- `message` (string, required) — Error message.
- `code` (string, optional) — Stable, machine-readable error code in snake_case (for example, not_found or missing_permission). Branch on this rather than the message text.
