public static Task<TransactionReceipt> UpdateAccountAsync(this ConsensusClient client, UpdateAccountParams updateParameters, Action<IConsensusContext>? configure = null)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
ConsensusClient	client	The Consensus Node Client orchestrating the update.
UpdateAccountParams	updateParameters	The account update parameters, includes a required EntityId reference to the account to update plus a number of changeable properties of the account.
Action<IConsensusContext>	configure	Optional callback method providing an opportunity to modify the execution configuration for just this method call. It is executed prior to submitting the request to the network.

Examples

// Rotate the signing key on an existing account. The network requires
// both the *current* key and the *new* key to sign — supply the new
// signatory on the params so it is combined with the existing context
// signatory during signing.
var receipt = await client.UpdateAccountAsync(new UpdateAccountParams
{
    Account = account,
    Endorsement = newEndorsement,
    Memo = "Key rotation 2026-Q2",
    Signatory = newSignatory
});
Console.WriteLine($"Update status: {receipt.Status}");

Exceptions

Type	Condition
ArgumentException	If required arguments are missing or invalid.
InvalidOperationException	If required context configuration is missing.
PrecheckException	If the gateway node refused the transaction. Only a code about the transaction itself proves it did not execute; any other code leaves the outcome unknown, so settle it by its transaction id on a mirror node rather than resubmitting it (see PrecheckException).
ConsensusException	If the outcome could not be confirmed: the transaction may have executed, so settle it by its transaction id on a mirror node rather than resubmitting it.
TransactionException	If the network rejected the update request as invalid or had missing data.
