# Update a scheduled or draft post with the PostEverywhere API

Only posts whose derived status is `scheduled` or `draft` can be
edited (`400 invalid_post_status` otherwise). At least one field is
required. Changing `account_ids` rebuilds all destinations; changing
only `scheduled_for` shifts every queued destination by the same
delta. Same alias and wrong-field-name rules as `createPost`.
Error codes: `validation_error`, `invalid_post_status`,
`content_too_long`, `too_many_accounts`, `invalid_timezone`,
`invalid_datetime`, `past_schedule_time`, `invalid_accounts`,
`invalid_field_name`, `invalid_id`, `not_found`.
