# Move Asset to another Location

`PATCH /v2/assets/{assetID}/move`

This request moves an existing asset from it's current location to another location. An parent asset that has one or more children assets cannot be moved.

A child asset can be moved and will be created as a top level asset in the other location.

locationID | Int | Required | The locationID of the location the asset needs to be moved to.
transferParts | boolean | Optional | A boolean representing whether parts associated with the asset should be moved to the location as well., Defaults to true.

## Request body

- object
  - `locationID` integer
  - `transferParts` boolean
