# Rename the caller's tenant

PATCH

/v1/tenant

```sh
curl --request PATCH \
  --url https://example.com/v1/tenant \
  --header 'Authorization: Bearer <token>' \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data '{ "name": "example", "slug": "example" }'
```

Changes its name, its slug, or both; a field left out stays as it is. Its id stays, so whatever names it by its id keeps working. The console’s addresses carry the slug: after a new one, links with the old one stop opening the tenant, and another tenant may take the old one. The same values again change nothing. Takes `admin` on the tenant. A runtime whose tenant-hierarchy binding can’t rename tenants doesn’t serve this route.

## Authorizations

## Parameters

### Header Parameters

**Idempotency-Key**

string

\>= 1 characters

Caller-supplied idempotency key, scoped to the caller: the same key from someone else in the tenant is their own request (from 0.1.5). Retries with the same key return the original response byte-identical (per `docs/API-ROUTE-CONVENTIONS.md` §3.1). A retry sent while the first request still runs is answered `409 idempotency-key-in-flight` with `Retry-After`, on a runtime whose store holds keys (from 0.1.5); retry after it, and you get the first request’s answer. An answer that carries a secret (a new API key or public run token, a session token, a generated signing secret) isn’t kept: a retry gets `409 idempotency-key-replay-withheld`, with the first request’s status and when it succeeded (from 0.1.5).

## Request Bodyrequired

application/json

A new name, a new slug, or both; a field left out stays as it is. The id stays, so whatever names the tenant by its id keeps working.

object

**name**

string

\>= 1 characters <= 100 characters

**slug**

Lowercase letters, digits and single hyphens, unique across tenants. The console’s addresses carry it, so links with the old one stop opening the tenant; nothing else is keyed by it.

string

<= 63 characters /^\[a-z0-9]\(?:-?\[a-z0-9])\*$/

##### Examplegenerated

```json
{
  "name": "example",
  "slug": "example"
}
```
