# Update an item by SKU

> Looks up an item by SKU (case-insensitive) and applies the same partial update as PUT /items/{item_id}.

`PUT https://rest.boxhero-app.com/v1/items/by-sku/{sku}`

## Autorização

- `Authorization` (string, obrigatório): Cabeçalho de autenticação Bearer no formato `Bearer <token>`, em que `<token>` é o seu [token de API](https://www.boxhero.io/docs/pt/developers/api/authentication.md).

## Parâmetros de caminho

- `sku` (string, min length 1, max length 255, obrigatório): Item SKU (case-insensitive). URL-encode special characters such as `#`, `%`, `/`, or spaces (e.g. `SKU%2FABC` for `SKU/ABC`).

## Corpo da requisição

- `name` (string, min length 1, max length 255): New display name. 1–255 characters.
- `sku` (string, max length 255): New SKU. An empty string is ignored (the SKU is left unchanged); an SKU cannot be cleared. Must remain unique within the team.
- `barcode` (string, max length 255): New primary barcode.
- `photo_url` (string, max length 2048): New photo URL. Pass an empty string to clear.
- `cost` (string): Cost per unit, as a decimal string. Range ±999,999,999.999 with up to 3 decimal places. Example: `"12345.234"`. The team's currency is reported on `GET /v1/teams/linked`.
- `price` (string): Selling price per unit, as a decimal string. Range ±999,999,999.999 with up to 3 decimal places. Example: `"12345.234"`. The team's currency is reported on `GET /v1/teams/linked`.
- `attrs` (array of object): Patch attribute values. Official request format is `[{ "id": <attr_id>, "value": <value> }, ...]`. Set `value` to `null` to remove that attribute. The legacy object form `{ "<attr_id>": <value> }` is still accepted for compatibility.

  - `id` (integer, minimum 0, maximum 2147483647, obrigatório): Attribute spec id.
  - `value` (string | number, nullable, obrigatório): Attribute value (typed per the spec); `null` removes the attribute.

## Respostas

**200** The updated item's id.

- `id` (integer, minimum 0, maximum 2147483647, obrigatório): Id of the updated item.

**400** Request validation failed.

- `id` (string, obrigatório): Unique exception id (`ex_` followed by 32 lowercase hex chars, no dashes — e.g. `ex_8f5c0c8e0e0a4a3c9b3f4f2c4f6c8d2a`). Quote this in support tickets so we can find the request in our logs.
- `type` (string, obrigatório): Stable, machine-readable error code (RFC 7807-style URI fragment). Branch your error handling on this, not on `title`.

  Valores possíveis: `/errors/not-found`, `/errors/invalid-request`, `/errors/invalid-team-mode`, `/errors/tokens/invalid`, `/errors/tokens/required`, `/errors/too-many-requests`, `/errors/core/usage-limit-exceeded`, `/errors/core/forbidden`, `/errors/core/unhandled`, `/errors/unhandled`
- `title` (string, obrigatório): Human-readable summary of the error, in English.
- `correlationID` (string, obrigatório): Request correlation id (`rq_` followed by 32 lowercase hex chars, no dashes — e.g. `rq_01abf3...`). Identical to the `X-Correlation-Id` response header. A client-supplied `X-Correlation-Id` request header (at most 128 chars of `A-Z a-z 0-9 . _ : / = -`) is echoed back here and in the response header; a missing or invalid value is silently replaced with a generated `rq_…` id.
- `instance` (string): Pointer to the specific failing resource (e.g. `/items/12345`). Path-only, no `/v1` version prefix. Absent on unknown-path `404` and unexpected `500` responses.
- `code` (string): Sub-reason code surfaced from upstream BoxHero core (on core-mapped 4xx) or from the gateway itself (e.g. `not-available-for-api-token` on 403). Use this for fine-grained branching after dispatching on `type`.
- `errors` (array of object): Field-level error details. Present on request-validation `/errors/invalid-request` (400) responses. Absent on malformed-JSON `400`, `413` body-too-large, and most errors mapped from BoxHero core (which include it only when core supplies an array; this can include `403`). Each entry locates a single failure via JSONPath-like `path` segments and a human-readable `message`.

  - `path` (array of string | number, obrigatório)
  - `message` (string, obrigatório)

**401** Missing, invalid, or revoked API token. `/errors/tokens/required` when no Bearer token is sent; `/errors/tokens/invalid` when the token is unknown or revoked (a revoked token may keep working for up to 60 seconds because validation results are cached).

- `id` (string, obrigatório): Unique exception id (`ex_` followed by 32 lowercase hex chars, no dashes — e.g. `ex_8f5c0c8e0e0a4a3c9b3f4f2c4f6c8d2a`). Quote this in support tickets so we can find the request in our logs.
- `type` (string, obrigatório): Stable, machine-readable error code (RFC 7807-style URI fragment). Branch your error handling on this, not on `title`.

  Valores possíveis: `/errors/not-found`, `/errors/invalid-request`, `/errors/invalid-team-mode`, `/errors/tokens/invalid`, `/errors/tokens/required`, `/errors/too-many-requests`, `/errors/core/usage-limit-exceeded`, `/errors/core/forbidden`, `/errors/core/unhandled`, `/errors/unhandled`
- `title` (string, obrigatório): Human-readable summary of the error, in English.
- `correlationID` (string, obrigatório): Request correlation id (`rq_` followed by 32 lowercase hex chars, no dashes — e.g. `rq_01abf3...`). Identical to the `X-Correlation-Id` response header. A client-supplied `X-Correlation-Id` request header (at most 128 chars of `A-Z a-z 0-9 . _ : / = -`) is echoed back here and in the response header; a missing or invalid value is silently replaced with a generated `rq_…` id.
- `instance` (string): Pointer to the specific failing resource (e.g. `/items/12345`). Path-only, no `/v1` version prefix. Absent on unknown-path `404` and unexpected `500` responses.
