# Update deployment

`PATCH /preview/v2/deployments/{id}`

> ⚠️ This endpoint is in [public preview](/preview/roadmap).

Update a deployment's configuration.

## Path parameters

- `id` string, required — A resource path like 'sfc:deployment:acme:prod:my-deployment' _or_ an ID. Resource paths are human-readable but not stable - they change when resources are renamed or moved. IDs are stable and permanent.

## Request body

- SfcApiPatchDeploymentRequest
  - `name` string
  - `instance_template` string — A resource path like 'sfc:instance_template:acme:prod:my-instance_template' _or_ an ID. Resource paths are human-readable but not stable - they change when resources are renamed or moved. IDs are stable and permanent.
  - `target_instance_count` integer, nullable
  - `instance_name_template` string — A name template using {{variable}} syntax. Available variables: {{adjective}} (~128 random adjectives), {{noun}} (~128 random nouns), {{nanoid(N)}} (N-character alphanumeric identifier, 1 ≤ N ≤ 21). The template must produce enough unique combinations to avoid collisions — equivalent to at least the default template {{adjective}}-{{noun}}-{{nanoid(6)}} (~1 quadrillion possibilities). Must start with an alphanumeric character. Resolved names are limited to 255 characters.
