# Update a Receive User

This API allows you to update the receive user information. Receive user details can only be updated if no transactions have been forwarded for delivery for the user. Hence, a receive user can only be updated when Delivery Status is NONE and in some cases, DELIVERY HOLD. 

#### `PATCH /users/{{receive_user_id}}`
