--- title: "Update monitor" method: PATCH path: "/v1/projects/{projectSlug}/monitors/{monitorSlug}" tags: ["Monitors"] --- # Update monitor `PATCH /v1/projects/{projectSlug}/monitors/{monitorSlug}` Updates a monitor's metadata and incident severity. Target, trigger, metric, and conditions are fixed after creation. System monitor edits are restricted. ## Path parameters - `projectSlug` string, required — Project slug (human-readable identifier) - `monitorSlug` string, required — Monitor slug (human-readable identifier within the project). ## Request body - UpdateMonitorBody - `name` string — New name.
