# Updates the jurisdiction information about a notary.

`PUT /v2.1/current_user/notary/jurisdictions/{jurisdictionId}`

Updates the jurisdiction information about a notary.

The following restrictions apply:

- The current user must be a notary.
- The `jurisdictionId` path parameter must be a jurisdiction that the notary is registered for.
- The `jurisdictionId` path parameter must match the request body's `jurisdiction.jurisdictionId`.

The request body must have a full `jurisdiction` object for the jurisdiction property.
The best way to do this is to use `getNotaryJurisdiction` to obtain the current values and update the properties you want to change.

For example, assume `getNotaryJurisdiction` returns this:

```
{
    "jurisdiction": {
        "jurisdictionId": "15",
        "name": "Iowa",
        "county": "",
        "enabled": "true",
        "countyInSeal": "false",
        "commissionIdInSeal": "true",
        "stateNameInSeal": "true",
        "notaryPublicInSeal": "true",
        "allowSystemCreatedSeal": "true",
        "allowUserUploadedSeal": "false"
    },
    "commissionId": "123456",
    "commissionExpiration": "2020-08-31T07:00:00.0000000Z",
    "registeredName": "Bob Notary",
    "county": "Adams",
    "sealType": "system_created"
}
```

If you want to change the name of the notary from "Bob Notary" to "Robert Notary", your request body would be:

```
{
    "jurisdiction": {
        "jurisdictionId": "15",
        "name": "Iowa",
        "county": "",
        "enabled": "true",
        "countyInSeal": "false",
        "commissionIdInSeal": "true",
        "stateNameInSeal": "true",
        "notaryPublicInSeal": "true",
        "allowSystemCreatedSeal": "true",
        "allowUserUploadedSeal": "false"
    },
    "commissionId": "123456",
    "commissionExpiration": "2020-08-31T07:00:00.0000000Z",
    "registeredName": "Robert Notary",
    "county": "Adams",
    "sealType": "system_created"
}
```
