`PATCH /consumers/{consumer_id}/connections/{connectionid}`

Returns the url that can be used by your client to update the connection

## Path parameters

- `consumer_id` string, uuid, required

  - `credentials` CredentialItem[], nullable — Can be used to update the credentials of an existing connection.
