# Update a filter template

> Project-scoped operation. Successful JSON and status-only responses vary by operation. The service does not declare a stable response schema for this operation; do not assume a collection envelope or undocumented fields.



## OpenAPI

````yaml /openapi-shield.json patch /shield/filter-templates/{template_id}
openapi: 3.1.0
info:
  title: Aptranet Cloud Shield API
  version: 1.0.0
  description: >-
    Public project-scoped API. Use the access key and secret together.
    Browser-only organization administration is documented separately. Request
    schemas and query parameters follow the service operation allowlist. Plan
    entitlements apply in addition to API permissions. Some analytics and action
    responses have operation-specific JSON shapes; where the implementation
    provides no stable response contract, the reference deliberately does not
    invent one.
