Learn about the Edit Relationship capability and how it updates selected parts of an existing relationship object without replacing the full object.

The Edit Relationship capability updates selected parts of an existing relationship object while preserving unchanged data. You can use this capability to modify relationship attributes and maintain source crosswalks.

A relationship object links entities in the graph. It can include attributes, crosswalks, tags, and optional startDate and endDate values that define whether the relationship is active. For more information, see Relations API

Supported updates

The following updates are currently supported for a relationship object:

• Change Attributes: Insert, update, delete, pin, or ignore attribute values in the relationship.
• Add/Update/Delete Crosswalks: Add, update, or delete crosswalks associated with source systems.

You can combine multiple changes in a single request by using a cumulative relations update. For more information, see, Cumulative Relations Update
