## Update an opportunity
`client.Opportunity.Update(ctx, id, body) (*OpportunityUpdateResponse, error)`
**post** `/v1/opportunities/{id}`
Updates an existing opportunity by ID. Only included fields and relationships are modified.
The `$opportunityStatus` field is read-only and cannot be updated. The `$task` and `$note` relationships are also read-only — manage them via the `$opportunity` relationship on the task, or the `$account`/`$opportunity` note relationships instead.
Supports idempotency via the `Idempotency-Key` header.
**[Required scope](/using-the-api/scopes/):** `opportunities:update`
**[Rate limit category](/using-the-api/rate-limits/):** Write
### Parameters
- `id string`
Unique identifier of the opportunity to update.
- `body OpportunityUpdateParams`
- `Fields param.Field[map[string, OpportunityUpdateParamsFieldUnion]]`
Field values to update — only provided fields are modified; omitted fields are left unchanged. System fields use a `$` prefix (e.g. `$name`, `$stage`); custom attributes use their bare slug. `SINGLE_SELECT` and `MULTI_SELECT` fields accept an option ID or label — call the [definitions endpoint](/api/resources/opportunity/methods/definitions) for available options. See [Fields and relationships](/using-the-api/fields-and-relationships/) for value type details.
