# Update Policy

`PUT /api/permissions/policies/{id}`

Updates an existing policy.

The update is a **full replacement** of the policy's bindings. Any role or
resource binding not included in the request body is removed. To make a
partial change, fetch the current policy with
[`GET /api/permissions/policies/{id}`](../../../../api-reference/permissions/policies/get), modify the relevant bindings,
and send the complete object back.
