Partially updates an organization-owned category key, sort order, or localized names. Omitted fields remain unchanged and cached category/response lists are invalidated. Access requires an active organization administrator session or an organization API key with the `canned-responses:write` scope. API-key calls also require the automation API module. Data is isolated to the authenticated organization; identifiers from another organization or site are not disclosed.

Update a localized canned response
Partially updates one organization-owned canned response. Supplied translations and shortcuts replace their corresponding locale sets; omitted fields remain unchanged. Moving the item validates that the destination category belongs to the same organization and invalidates cached lists. Access requires an active organization administrator session or an organization API key with the `canned-responses:write` scope. API-key calls also require the automation API module. Data is isolated to the authenticated organization; identifiers from another organization or site are not disclosed.
