"description": "#### Updating drop-down field options\n\nYou can also use the update endpoint to add, update, or remove options in a drop-down custom field. Updating field options for multi-select fields works exactly the same as drop-down field options.\n\n**Important**: Unless you want to remove some options, you must specify all existing options in any update request. Omitting an option removes it from the drop-down field, which removes its values from any tickets or macros.\n\nUse the `custom_field_options` attribute to update the options. The attribute consists of an array of option objects, with each object consisting of a `name` and `value` property. The properties correspond to the \"Title\" and \"Tag\" text boxes in the admin interface. Example request body:\n\n```json\n{\"ticket_field\": {\n \"custom_field_options\": [\n {\"name\": \"Apple Pie\", \"value\": \"apple\"},\n {\"name\": \"Pecan Pie\", \"value\": \"pecan\"}\n ]\n }\n}\n```\n\n#### Example Request\n\n```bash\ncurl https://{subdomain}.zendesk.com/api/v2/ticket_fields/{id}.json \\\n -d '{\"ticket_field\": {\"custom_field_options\": [{\"name\": \"Apple Pie\", \"value\": \"apple\"}, {\"name\": \"Pecan Pie\", \"value\": \"pecan\"}]}}' \\\n -H \"Content-Type: application/json\" -X PUT \\\n -v -u {email_address}:{password}\n```\n\n#### Example Response\n\n```http\nStatus: 200 OK\n\n{\n \"ticket_field\": {\n \"id\":21938362,\n \"type\":\"tagger\",\n \"title\":\"Pies\",\n ...\n \"custom_field_options\": [\n {\n \"id\":21029772,\n \"name\":\"Apple Pie\",\n \"raw_name\":\"Apple Pie\",\n \"value\":\"apple\",\n \"default\":false\n },\n ...\n ]\n }\n}\n```\n\n#### Allowed for\n\n* Admins\n"
