# Update agent metadata

`PATCH /agent/{id}`

Update agent fields. Behavior depends on whether the agent has versioning enabled:

**Versioned agents** (have an active published version): only metadata fields are accepted —
`name`, `description`, `avatarUrl`, `telephonyProductId`, `allowInboundCall`, `visibleToEveryone`.
Submitting any config-level field returns 400 with
`"Agent has versioning enabled. Config changes must be made through drafts."`.
Use `PATCH /agent/{id}/drafts/{draftId}/config` instead.

**Non-versioned agents** (no active version): all configuration fields are accepted,
the same full set as `POST /agent`.

**400 is also returned when a cross-field constraint is violated** (for example, `north_indic` language requires `transcriberType: pulse`).

**403** is returned when selecting a gated model (`gpt-5.2`, `electron-kogta`, `electron-kogta-v2`)
without org-level access.
