Update a payout ​

Updates the specified payout by setting the values of the parameters you pass. We don’t change parameters that you don’t provide. This request only accepts the metadata as arguments.

Returns ​

Returns the payout object if the update succeeds. This call raises an error if update parameters are invalid.

Parameters ​

  • metadata (object, optional) Set of key-value pairs that you can attach to an object. This can be useful for storing additional information about the object in a structured format. Individual keys can be unset by posting an empty value to them. All keys can be unset by posting an empty value to metadata.
