  • update_search_preferencesChange the connected renter's saved alert search.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "update_search_preferences" says "update": a word for a change.
    • The server marks it destructive (destructiveHint: true).
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Change the connected renter's saved alert search. Send only the fields to change; everything else stays. Saves exactly like the RentReboot preferences page, so its rules apply (for example a search always keeps at least one neighborhood). For a new account, set city together with neighborhoods once; after that the market cannot change here. Confirm the change with the renter first. Weekly recap pauses individual alerts.
