POST /ramps/{ramp-id}/update

Updates an existing subscription ramp by replacing its current attribute values with the new parameters provided. When using this API to modify a ramp, make sure to include all the ramp's attributes as you would do during creation of the ramp with the necessary values updated.

Example: step-by-step flow
The following steps explains how to update effective_from value of an existing ramp.

Step 1: Retrieve current ramp values

Send a request to retrieve the current values of all parameters for the subscription ramp using Retrieve a subscription ramp API.
Review the response to get the current values of the ramp's attributes. Note down all the parameters and their values.

Step 2: Update ramp with new values

Prepare the request to update the ramp.
- Update the effective_from value in the noted down attributes of ramp from the previous step.
- Ensure all parameters, even those not being changed, are included in the request.
Send the prepared request to Update subscription ramp API.
- Verify the response object to ensure a successful subscription ramp update. If it returns an error, repeat step 1 again.

Note

Ramp status : You cannot update a ramp in succeeded or failed status.
Advance invoice : You cannot update ramps for subscriptions that have an advance invoice schedule.
