Update recipient

Changes the details of an existing recipient, such as their name, email, address, or bank account.

Send only the fields you want to change. Inside bank and address, only the keys you send are updated; the rest keep their current values. The same validation rules as Create recipient apply to the fields you send, and a failure returns 422 with error_code: VALIDATION_ERROR and an errors array. If the recipient passes validation but can't be saved, you get 422 with error_code: UNPROCESSABLE_ENTITY and the message Can not update recipient.

The response is the updated recipient. An unknown or deleted recipient returns 404.
