# Update a Sender

## API Overview

## Operation overview

```json
{"path":"https://api.sendgrid.com/v3/marketing/senders/{id}","method":"patch","servers":[{"url":"https://api.sendgrid.com","description":"The Twilio SendGrid v3 API"}]}
```

**This endpoint allows you to update an existing Sender.**

Updates to `from.email` require re-verification. If your domain has been authenticated, a new Sender will auto verify on creation. Otherwise, an email will be sent to the `from.email`.

Partial updates are allowed, but fields that are marked as "required" in the `POST` (create) endpoint must not be nil if that field is included in the `PATCH` request.
