Patches an item in the Azure Cosmos service as an asynchronous operation.

public abstract System.Threading.Tasks.Task<Microsoft.Azure.Cosmos.ItemResponse<T>> PatchItemAsync<T> (string id, Microsoft.Azure.Cosmos.PartitionKey partitionKey, System.Collections.Generic.IReadOnlyList<Microsoft.Azure.Cosmos.PatchOperation> patchOperations, Microsoft.Azure.Cosmos.PatchItemRequestOptions requestOptions = default, System.Threading.CancellationToken cancellationToken = default);

abstract member PatchItemAsync : string * Microsoft.Azure.Cosmos.PartitionKey * System.Collections.Generic.IReadOnlyList<Microsoft.Azure.Cosmos.PatchOperation> * Microsoft.Azure.Cosmos.PatchItemRequestOptions * System.Threading.CancellationToken -> System.Threading.Tasks.Task<Microsoft.Azure.Cosmos.ItemResponse<'T>>

Public MustOverride Function PatchItemAsync(Of T) (id As String, partitionKey As PartitionKey, patchOperations As IReadOnlyList(Of PatchOperation), Optional requestOptions As PatchItemRequestOptions = Nothing, Optional cancellationToken As CancellationToken = Nothing) As Task(Of ItemResponse(Of T))

Type Parameters

T

Parameters

id: String

The Cosmos item id of the item to be patched.

partitionKey: PartitionKey

PartitionKey for the item

patchOperations: IReadOnlyList<PatchOperation>

Represents a list of operations to be sequentially applied to the referred Cosmos item.

requestOptions: PatchItemRequestOptions

(Optional) The options for the item request.

cancellationToken: CancellationToken

(Optional) CancellationToken representing request cancellation.

Returns

Task<ItemResponse<T>>

A Task containing a ItemResponse<T> which wraps the updated resource record.

Examples

public class ToDoActivity{
    public string id {get; set;}
    public string status {get; set;}
    public string description {get; set;}
    public int frequency {get; set;}
}

Example 1: Reading Item with Full Response

This example demonstrates how to read an item from the container and retrieve the full
response, including metadata such as request units (RU) consumed, along with the
`ToDoActivity` object.

ItemResponse<ToDoActivity> toDoActivity = await this.container.ReadItemAsync<ToDoActivity>("id", new PartitionKey("partitionKey"));

Example 2: Reading Item with Implicit Casting

This example shows how to read an item from the container and implicitly cast the
response directly to a `ToDoActivity` object, omitting the metadata in the `ItemResponse`.

ToDoActivity toDoActivity = await this.container.ReadItemAsync<ToDoActivity>("id", new PartitionKey("partitionKey"));

/* toDoActivity = {
    "id" : "someId",
    "status" : "someStatusPK",
    "description" : "someDescription",
    "frequency" : 7
}*/

List<PatchOperation> patchOperations = new List<PatchOperation>()
{
    PatchOperation.Add("/daysOfWeek", new string[]{"Monday", "Thursday"}),
    PatchOperation.Replace("/frequency", 2),
    PatchOperation.Remove("/description")
};

ItemResponse<dynamic> item = await this.container.PatchItemAsync<dynamic>(toDoActivity.id, new PartitionKey(toDoActivity.status), patchOperations);
/* item.Resource = {
    "id" : "someId",
    "status" : "someStatusPK",
    "description" : null,
    "frequency" : 2,
    "daysOfWeek" : ["Monday", "Thursday"]
}*/

Remarks

The item's partition key value is immutable. To change an item's partition key value you must delete the original item and insert a new item. The patch operations are atomic and are executed sequentially. By default, resource body will be returned as part of the response. User can request no content by setting EnableContentResponseOnWrite flag to false. Note that, this API does not support the usage of IfMatchEtag property at the moment.
