Update Employee Dependent

Replaces all fields on an existing employee dependent record. The request body must contain the full desired state of the dependent — omitted fields are written as empty or null, not preserved. employeeId is required and must reference a valid employee. relationship must be a valid relationship type and gender must be a valid gender value. isUsCitizen and isStudent accept "yes" or "no". state accepts a state code (e.g. "UT") and country accepts an ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code (e.g. "US"). dateOfBirth must be in YYYY-MM-DD format. SSN and SIN are accepted as plain text and stored encrypted. Accepts both application/json and application/xml request bodies. The response format mirrors the request Content-Type (not the Accept header): JSON request bodies receive a JSON response; XML request bodies receive an XML response. A successful update fires an internal dependent-updated event that may trigger downstream benefit enrollment processing.
