## URI Request Parameters
<a name="API_UpdateScope_RequestParameters"></a>

The request uses the following URI parameters.

 ** [scopeIdentifier](#API_UpdateScope_RequestSyntax) **   <a name="networksecuritymanager-UpdateScope-request-uri-scopeIdentifier"></a>
The identifier of the scope. This is the scope's Amazon Resource Name (ARN).  
Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 1010.  
Required: Yes

## Request Body
<a name="API_UpdateScope_RequestBody"></a>

The request accepts the following data in JSON format.

 ** [clientToken](#API_UpdateScope_RequestSyntax) **   <a name="networksecuritymanager-UpdateScope-request-clientToken"></a>
A unique, case-sensitive token that you provide to ensure that the operation completes no more than one time. If you retry a request with the same client token and the same parameters, the service returns the result of the original successful request.  
Type: String  
Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 64.  
Pattern: `[\x21-\x7E]+`   
Required: No

 ** [isPublished](#API_UpdateScope_RequestSyntax) **   <a name="networksecuritymanager-UpdateScope-request-isPublished"></a>
Specifies whether to publish the resource. When `true`, the resource is saved in published (`ACTIVE`) state. When `false`, it is saved as a draft (`DRAFT`).  
Type: Boolean  
Required: Yes

 ** [scopeConfiguration](#API_UpdateScope_RequestSyntax) **   <a name="networksecuritymanager-UpdateScope-request-scopeConfiguration"></a>
The configuration that defines which accounts and resources are in scope. If you don't include this member, the scope keeps its existing configuration.  
A new configuration can change which accounts and resources are selected, but it can't add or remove the account filter itself: a scope created for multi-account use stays multi-account, and a scope created for single-account use stays single-account.  
Type: [ScopeConfiguration](API_ScopeConfiguration.md) object  
Required: No

 ** [scopeDescription](#API_UpdateScope_RequestSyntax) **   <a name="networksecuritymanager-UpdateScope-request-scopeDescription"></a>
A description of the scope.  
Type: String  
Length Constraints: Minimum length of 0. Maximum length of 256.  
Pattern: `[a-zA-Z0-9 _.:/=+\-@]*`   
Required: No

 ** [updateToken](#API_UpdateScope_RequestSyntax) **   <a name="networksecuritymanager-UpdateScope-request-updateToken"></a>
A token used for optimistic concurrency control. Each read and write returns an `updateToken`. Provide the most recent value on your next update to detect and prevent conflicting concurrent modifications.  
Type: String  
Length Constraints: Fixed length of 36.  
Pattern: `([0-9a-f]{8})-([0-9a-f]{4}-){3}([0-9a-f]{12})`   
Required: Yes
