How to complete the challenge PATCH /todos/id (200) partial

Use PATCH with Content-Type: application/json when you want to update selected fields on an existing todo. Partial JSON updates are an API-specific PATCH style.

PATCH /todos/id (200) partial

Issue a PATCH request to update an existing todo using a partial JSON payload.

• Use PATCH /todos/{id} where {id} is an existing todo id.
• Add Content-Type: application/json.
• Send only the fields you want to change.
• Do not include id in the payload.
• The response should be 200.
• Fields that are not in the payload should keep their existing values.
• You can learn more about PATCH in the HTTP verbs tutorial.

Basic Instructions

• Issue a PATCH request to:
  • https://apichallenges.eviltester.com/todos/{{firstTodoId}}
• The request should have an X-CHALLENGER header so the challenge is tracked.
• The request body can be a partial JSON object:

{
  "title": "patched partial todo"
}
