Very similar to the "Create an applicant" method.

However, name, email, and phone_number are not required. If they are passed, the applicant will be validated with the new values.

Passing whats_app as a value to the phone_platform argument will only update applicants that belong to accounts that have Whats App enabled.

Existing attributes are overwritten (except auto-generated attributes such as created_at), and new attributes are added.

If an existing attribute is set to null or "", it will be removed.

Updating data keys of type address

When updating a value that has a data_key of type address you will want to submit the data in the following format. In this example, address_key is a data_key of type address:

data: { 'address_key' => {
        country_code: 'United States',
        city: 'Billings',
        address_2: 'suite 301',
        state_code: 'MT',
        postal_code: '59101',
        street_address: '327 Burlington',
        country_code_iso: 'US',
        state_code_iso: 'MT',
        state_code_name: 'Montana',
      } }
