# How-to Updating a Position

## When to use this

Use this mutation when you need to change details of an existing position (e.g., updating the job title or description).

## GraphQL Request

Replace the `id` value with the ID of the position you want to update. If you don't know how to get the ID, see [Fetching Positions](/features/positions/fetching-positions). Don't forget to update the [Hireflix API Key](/quickstart) in the `headers`.

```json theme={null}
{
  "data": {
    "Position": {
      "save": {
        "id": "68b43e38b19cf131a17c543f",
        "name": "Social Media Manager Updated",
