# contractorOps.roles.updateJob

Rename a job, and optionally set its department and type, on every level at once. levels lists each level's id and expectedRevision (include archived levels so the whole job changes together), with title and idempotencyKey. It changes nothing if any level changed since it was read, or if the new title and a level's name are already a role. A level held through an agreement can't be renamed here.

## Fields

| Field | Type | Required | Notes |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `levels` | array of objects | Yes | 1–100 items. |
| `levels[].id` | string (ID) | Yes | The record's ID. |
| `levels[].expectedRevision` | integer | Yes | The record's current revision, from the last time you read it. If someone changed the record since, the request is refused with a conflict so you can reload and check before trying again. at most 9007199254740991; greater than 0. |
| `title` | string | Yes | A short title. 1–200 characters. |
| `department` | string |  | at most 120 characters. |
| `employmentType` | enum |  | One of: `contractor`, `employee`, `either`. |
| `idempotencyKey` | string | Yes | Any unique text you generate once per intended change, so a retried request only happens once. Send it as the Idempotency-Key header instead if you prefer; if you send both they must match. 8–200 characters. |
