Modify Balance Metadata

This endpoint modifies the metadata of a specified balance, like name, poNumber, startDate or endDate. To modify deposited funds, check the following endpoint.

End Date BehaviorThe endDate attribute now supports explicitly removing an end date from a balance. You can now provide endDate as an object containing a value field. If endDate is omitted from the request, the existing value will remain unchanged.This allows balances to be converted from fixed date ranges to open-ended balances when required for advertiser or retailer workflows.

Only Balances created through the API can be modified through this endpoint, i.e., with billing type billByRetailer
