# Update a cost rule

> Update an existing cost rule. Same body shape as create, but every field is
optional — send the fields you intend to change. Nested collections
(`scopes`, `conditions`, `tiers`) **replace** the existing set when provided.
Requires the tenant **Cost Rules** feature flag.

This endpoint also accepts `POST /cost-rules/{id}` for clients that cannot
send `PUT`.

Delete is not exposed on the External API — set `status` to `INACTIVE`
to deactivate a rule.
