# Update vectors

PUT http://localhost:6333/collections/{collection_name}/points/vectors
Content-Type: application/json

Updates specified vectors on points. All other unspecified vectors will stay intact.

Reference: https://api.qdrant.tech/api-reference/points/update-vectors

## Authentication

- `api-key` header (required) — API Key authentication via header

## Servers

- `http://localhost:6333` (http, default)
- `https://localhost:6333` (https)

## Request

### Path parameters

- `collection_name` (string, required) — Name of the collection to update from

### Query parameters

- `wait` (boolean, optional) — If true, wait for changes to actually happen
- `ordering` (enum, optional) — define ordering guarantees for the operation
  - Allowed values: `weak`, `medium`, `strong`

### Body (application/json)

This endpoint expects an UpdateVectors.

- `points` (list of PointVectors, required) — Points with named vectors
- `shard_key` (UpdateVectorsShardKey, optional)

## Response

### 200

successful operation

- `time` (double, optional) — Time spent to process this request
- `status` (string, optional)
- `result` (UpdateResult, optional)

## Types

### PointVectors

- `id` (ExtendedPointId, required) — Type, used for specifying point ID in user interface
- `vector` (VectorStruct, required) — Full vector data per point separator with single and multiple vector modes

### UpdateVectorsShardKey

### UpdateResult

- `status` (enum, required) — `Acknowledged` - Request is saved to WAL and will be process in a queue. `Completed` - Request is completed, changes are actual.
  - Allowed values: `acknowledged`, `completed`
- `operation_id` (uint64, optional, nullable) — Sequential number of the operation

### ExtendedPointId

Type, used for specifying point ID in user interface

### VectorStruct

Full vector data per point separator with single and multiple vector modes

**Response**

```json
{
  "time": 1.1,
  "status": "string",
  "result": {
    "status": "acknowledged",
    "operation_id": 1
  }
}
