@colin_mckibben is this correct? Looks more like a PATCH to me, not POST 🙂

I believe the original CC API call is a POST but the v3 replacement uses a PATCH. If I’m mistaken, please let me know the correct verbs.

I think we’re okay here. The link to `update-source` takes you to the PATCH endpoint 🙂

@colin_mckibben

i used the similar body in the source patch request but it doesn’t work correctly.  
[  
{  
“op”: “replace”,  
“path”: “/connectorAttributes/accountCreateNotification”,  
“value”: {  
“notifyAccountManager”: false,  
“accountIdAttribute”: “id”,  
“notifyList”: null,  
“notifyAccountOwner”: true,  
“enabled”: true,  
“notifyAccountOwnerAltEmail”: true  
}  
}  
]

for notifyAccountOwner it is sending the notification properly.but for notifyAccountOwnerAltEmail it is not sending the notification correctly as i kept the body in the emailTemplate.
