# Update a taxonomy term

`PATCH https://api.cademi.com.br/api/v3/products/{product_id}/taxonomies/{taxonomy_id}/terms/{taxonomy_term_id}`

Operation ID: `taxonomies.terms.update` · API v3

Updates the `name` and `image` of a taxonomy term. Omitted fields remain unchanged; setting `image` to `null` removes the image. `image` accepts the ID of a file previously uploaded to the account.

Send the `ETag` returned by the retrieve operation in the `If-Match` header to avoid overwriting a newer version.

Terms of replicated products are read-only. Attempts to update them return `403 Forbidden` with the `replica_readonly` error code.

Required permissions: `taxonomies.update`.
