# Update Member
> Update Member details using the Stytch Next.js SDK
export const action_0 = "update";
export const resource_0 = "stytch.member";
export const isUpdate_0 = true;
export const isSelf_0 = undefined;
export const isCreate_0 = undefined;
export const getBySlug_0 = undefined;
export const organization = "Represents an instance or tenant in your application, typically mapping to each of your top-level customers.";
export const member = "Represents an individual end user's account within a given Organization, uniquely identified within that Organization by their email address.";
`organizations.members.update` wraps the [update member](/api-reference/b2b/api/members/update-member) endpoint. Use it to update an existing Member in the current Organization.
**RBAC Enforced Method**
This method requires a valid Session for a member with permission to perform the **{action_0} Action** on the **{resource_0} Resource**.
Before using this method, enable **Member actions & organization modifications** in the [Frontend SDK page](https://stytch.com/dashboard/sdk-configuration). To learn more, see our [RBAC guide](/multi-tenant-auth/enterprise-ready/rbac/create-rbac-policy).
The `organization_id` to update a member within will be automatically inferred from the logged-in Member's session. This method cannot be used to create Members in other Organizations.
If you only need to update the currently logged-in member, use the [update self](../self/update-self) method.
## Parameters
{isUpdate_0 && !isSelf_0 && (
Globally unique UUID that identifies a specific Member. You may use an external_id here if one is set for the Member.
)}
{isCreate_0 && (
The email address of the Member.
)}
{isUpdate_0 && !isSelf_0 && (
Updates the Member's email_address, if provided. This will clear any existing passwords and require re-verification of the new email address. If a Member's email address is changed, other Members in the same Organization cannot use the old email address, although the Member may update back to their old email address. A Member's email address can only be useable again by other Members if the Member is deleted.
If this field is provided, the logged-in Member must have permission to perform the update.info.email action on the stytch.member Resource. Members cannot update their own email address.
)}
The name of the Member.
An arbitrary JSON object of application-specific data. These fields can be edited directly by the frontend SDK, and should not be used to store critical information. See the [Metadata resource](/api-reference/b2b/api/resources/object-update-behavior) for complete field behavior details.
{isCreate_0 && (
Flag for whether or not to save a Member as pending or active in Stytch.
If true, new Members will be created with status pending in Stytch's backend. Their status will remain pending and they will continue to receive signup email templates for every Email Magic Link until that Member authenticates and becomes active.
If false, new Members will be created with status active.
)}
{!isSelf_0 && (
Identifies the Member as a break glass user - someone who has permissions to authenticate into an Organization by bypassing the Organization's settings.
A break glass account is typically used for emergency purposes to gain access outside of normal authentication procedures. Refer to the Organization object and its auth_methods and allowed_auth_methods fields for more details.
)}
The Member's phone number. A Member may only have one phone number.
The phone number should be in E.164 format (i.e. +1XXXXXXXXXX).
Sets whether the Member is enrolled in MFA.
If true, the Member must complete an MFA step whenever they wish to log in to their Organization.
If false, the Member only needs to complete an MFA step if the Organization's MFA policy is set to `REQUIRED_FOR_ALL`.
{isUpdate_0 && (
The Member's default MFA method. This value is used to determine which secondary MFA method to use in the case of multiple methods registered for a Member. The current possible values are sms_otp and totp.
If this field is provided, the logged-in Member must have permission to perform the update.settings.default-mfa-method action on the stytch.member Resource. Alternatively, if the logged-in Member matches the member_id passed in the request, the request is also permissible if the logged-in Member has permission to perform the update.settings.default-mfa-method action on the stytch.self Resource.
)}
{!isSelf_0 && (
Roles to explicitly assign to this Member. See the RBAC guide for more information about role assignment.
)}
{isUpdate_0 && !isSelf_0 && (
If unlink_email is true and an email_address is provided, the Member's previous email will be deleted instead of retired. Defaults to false.
)}

* It's replaced with a new primary email address during an explicit Member update.
* A new email address is surfaced by an OAuth, SAML or OIDC provider. In this case the new email address becomes the Member's primary email address and the old primary email address is retired. A retired email address cannot be used by other Members in the same Organization. However, unlinking retired email addresses allows them to be subsequently re-used by other Organization Members. Retired email addresses can be unlinked using the [Unlink Retired Email endpoint](/api-reference/b2b/api/members/unlink-retired-email).

The unique identifier of the RBAC Role, provided by the developer and intended to be human-readable.
Reserved `role_ids` that are predefined by Stytch include:
* `stytch_member`
* `stytch_admin`
Check out the [guide on Stytch default Roles](/multi-tenant-auth/enterprise-ready/rbac/create-rbac-policy#default-roles-and-resources) for a more detailed explanation.
A list of sources for this role assignment. A role assignment can come from multiple sources - for example, the Role could be both explicitly assigned and implicitly granted from the Member's email domain.
The type of role assignment. The possible values are:
* `direct_assignment` – an explicitly assigned Role. Directly assigned roles can be updated by passing in the roles argument to the Update Member endpoint.
* `email_assignment` – an implicit Role granted by the Member's email domain, regardless of their login method. Email implicit role assignments can be updated by passing in the `rbac_email_implicit_role_assignments` argument to the Update Organization endpoint.
* `sso_connection` – an implicit Role granted by the Member's SSO connection. This is currently only available for SAML connections and not for OIDC. If the Member has a SAML Member registration with the given connection, this role assignment will appear in the list. However, for authorization check purposes (in sessions authenticate or in any endpoint that enforces RBAC with session headers), the Member will only be granted the Role if their session contains an authentication factor with the specified SAML connection. SAML connection implicit role assignments can be updated by passing in the `saml_connection_implicit_role_assignments` argument to the Update SAML connection endpoint.
* `sso_connection_group` – an implicit Role granted by the Member's SSO connection and group. This is currently only available for SAML connections and not for OIDC. If the Member has a SAML Member registration with the given connection, and belongs to a specific group within the IdP, this role assignment will appear in the list. However, for authorization check purposes (in sessions authenticate or in any endpoint that enforces RBAC with session headers), the Member will only be granted the role if their session contains an authentication factor with the specified SAML connection.
* `scim_connection_group` – an implicit Role granted by the Member's SCIM connection and group. If the Member has a SCIM Member registration with the given connection, and belongs to a specific group within the IdP, this role assignment will appear in the list. SCIM group implicit role assignments can be updated by passing in the `scim_group_implicit_role_assignments` argument to the Update SCIM connection endpoint.
An object containing additional metadata about the source assignment. The fields will vary depending on the role assignment type as follows:
* `direct_assignment` – no additional details.
* `email_assignment` – will contain the email domain that granted the assignment.
* `sso_connection` – will contain the `connection_id` of the SAML connection that granted the assignment.
* `sso_connection_group` – will contain the `connection_id` of the SAML connection and the name of the group that granted the assignment.
* `scim_connection_group` – will contain the `connection_id` of the SAML connection and the `group_id` that granted the assignment.
Whether or not the Member has the `stytch_admin` Role. This Role is automatically granted to Members who create an Organization through the discovery flow. See the [RBAC guide](/multi-tenant-auth/enterprise-ready/rbac/create-rbac-policy) for more details on this Role.
