Twilio API Documentation and Error CodesAPI

Description

description page anchor

This error occurs when your channel update request does not include any channel data to change. When you update a channel, include at least one supported field in the request.

Possible causes

possible-causes page anchor
  • The request body did not include any channel updates.
  • The request did not include a supported updatable field. Update only type, description, or is_primary.
  • The request attempted to change the channel value itself, which cannot be updated.
  • Send at least one supported field in the update request. Use type, description, or is_primary.
  • If you update type, use a supported channel value: email, sms, voice, messenger, or whatsapp.
  • If you update description, keep the value under 100 characters.
  • If you set is_primary to true, make sure only one channel is marked as primary.
  • If you need to change the channel value itself, remove it from the update request. Delete the existing channel and create a new one with the new value.
