Update Account
PATCH/accounts/:id
This updates account details. A token with ORG_ADMIN, SOURCE_ADMIN, or SOURCE_SUBADMIN authority is required to call this API. This endpoint supports updating an account's correlation. It can only modify the identityId and manuallyCorrelated attributes. To re-assign an account from one identity to another, replace the current identityId with a new value. If the account you're assigning was provisioned by IdentityNow, it's possible IdentityNow could create a new account for the previous identity as soon as the account is moved. If the account you're assigning is authoritative, this will cause the previous identity to become uncorrelated and could even result in its deletion. All accounts that are are reassigned will be set to manuallyCorrelated: true.
