JavaScript / Node.js


const dataToUpdate = {
  "title": "New category title"
}

  method: 'PATCH',
  body: JSON.stringify(dataToUpdate),
  headers: {
    'Authorization': `Bearer YOUR_TOKEN`,
    'Content-Type': 'application/json'
  }
});

  'body' => json_encode($dataToUpdate),
  'headers' => [
    'Authorization' => 'Bearer YOUR_TOKEN',
    'Content-Type' => 'application/json'
  ]
]);
