**Description**  
I am attempting to allow users to edit the topics of their recordings from my site. I am sending a .PATCH request to the endpoint /meetings/{meetingId}/recordings/settings.

I send the request, and receive the 204 code that indicates the update was successful. Unfortunately it only updates the topic about 20% of the time. It doesn’t seem to depend on the content of the topic string.

I am completely confused about what it doesn’t always work, when I send the same request multiple times.

Any ideas what I could be doing wrong?

**Which App Type (OAuth / Chatbot / JWT / Webhook)?**  
OAuth

Hi, @AlcheZoomy,

Thank you for posting in the Developer Forum. Are you able to share the meetingIDs and payloads for when the update recording setting is and isn’t working ? Be sure to omit any sensitive account information. If it is easier, you can also send that to [developersupport@zoom.us](mailto:developersupport@zoom.us) and we can troubleshoot from there.

This information will help to identify what may be happening.

Best,  
Donte
