Hi,

i am about to create a custom schema in Hubspot and it is very foreseeable that i have to update the properties from time to time.

The patch method of the custom objects api does not seem to support updating the properties itself.  
Is there an easy way of doing this or do i have to create a new schema and update all objects myself (that would be a pain because we will have a lot of objects and will run into the api limits even in batch mode).  
I am gratefull for every help.

Thanks in advance,

Gabriel

Hi, @MIT6 👋 To confirm, you are not missing an option with the Custom Object endpoints. Take a look at this answer from our community champion @LMeert for additional details — [Updating schema properties](https://community.hubspot.com/t5/APIs-Integrations/Updating-schema-properties/m-p/608260/highlight/true#M52208)

Have fun coding! — Jaycee
