# UpdateBillingPreferences
<a name="API_billing_UpdateBillingPreferences"></a>

Updates billing preferences for the specified feature. Each feature targets a distinct billing capability and has its own set of supported keys. The action sets the value for each provided key; keys not present in the request are unchanged.

Sharing keys (`RI_SHARING`, `CREDIT_SHARING`, `CREDIT_LEVEL_SHARING`, and sharing keys under `CREDIT_PREFERENCE_OPTIONS`) may only be set by the management account of a consolidated billing family. The `credit/{creditId}/status` key may be set by member accounts for credits they own, or by the management account for any credit in the family.
