## Parameters
### Path Parameters
**id**
required
string
Provider ID (prefixed, e.g., prov\_…)
## Request Bodyrequired
Media typeapplication/json
Request to update an LLM provider. Only provided fields will be updated.
object
**api\_key**
API key for authenticating with the provider. Will be encrypted at rest if encryption is configured.
Single-field convenience for simple providers and programmatic clients. Multi-field drivers (Bedrock, MAI) should send `credentials` instead.
string | null
**base\_url**
Base URL for the provider’s API.
string | null
##### Example
```plaintext
https://api.openai.com/v1
```
**credentials**
Typed credential fields keyed by the driver’s declared credential-schema field names. Validated against the schema and assembled into the stored credential document. Takes precedence over `api_key` when present.
object | null
**name**
Display name for the provider.
string | null
##### Example
```plaintext
OpenAI Development
```
**provider\_type**
One of:
* string
The type of LLM provider (e.g., openai, anthropic).
string
* null
null
**request\_options**
One of:
* object
Extra headers and diagnostics options applied to every request sent to this provider. Replaces the stored options wholesale; omit to leave them unchanged.
object
**cache\_diagnostics**
Ask the provider to explain unexpected prompt-cache misses. Honored by drivers with a diagnostics protocol (today: Anthropic’s `cache-diagnosis` beta); ignored elsewhere.
boolean
**headers**
Extra HTTP headers added to every request to this provider. They override the driver’s and the connection’s own headers by name, but connection-level headers (`host`, `content-length`, …) are ignored.
