Deprecated. PUT /2/users/:user_id/sources/:source_id renames a stream source. Use PUT /2/sources/:id instead; this route will be removed on January 1, 2027.
This route is deprecated and will be removed on January 1, 2027, after which it returns 404. Use Update Source by ID (PUT /2/sources/:id) instead, which takes the source id rather than the stream key. See the migration guide.
Only the name can be updated.Endpoint:PUT /2/users/:user_id/sources/:source_id:source_id is the source’s stream key (its id on the deprecated routes).
Request body
{ "name": "Updated Encoder Name"}
Response
The updated source object (wrapped in "source").
