When updating a drop-down field, note the following information:\n\n- All options must be passed on update. Options that are not passed will be removed. As a result, these values will be removed from any organizations\n- To create a new option, pass a null `id` along with the `name` and `value`\n- To update an existing option, pass its `id` along with the `name` and `value`\n- To reorder an option, reposition it in the `custom_field_options` array relative to the other options\n- To remove an option, omit it from the list of options upon update\n\n#### Example Request\n\n```bash\ncurl https://{subdomain}.zendesk.com/api/v2/organization_fields/{organization_field_id}.json \\\n  -H \"Content-Type: application/json\" -X PUT \\\n  -d '{\"organization_field\": {\"custom_field_options\": [{\"id\": 124, \"name\": \"Option 2\", \"value\": \"option_2\"}, {\"id\": 123, \"name\": \"Option 1\", \"value\": \"option_1\"}, {\"id\": 125, \"name\": \"Option 3\", \"value\": \"option_3\"}]}}' \\\n  -v -u {email_address}:{password}\n```\n#### Allowed for\n\n* Admins\n"
