# Edit comment

`PATCH /v1/inbox/comments/{postId}/{commentId}`

Edit the body of a comment the connected account posted. Supported on Reddit only.

Reddit keeps the same comment id after an edit. Reddit exposes no API to edit a post
title, and a link post has no editable body. To edit a published post's body, use
`POST /v1/posts/{postId}/edit`.
