/v1/model/assets/{uuid}Rename, move, retire, or unretire an asset
operation ID: patch_v1_model_assets_by_uuid
Overview
Rename, move, retire, or unretire an asset. The model API describes assets, attributes, bindings, templates, views, registries, and governed changes that give series data its operational meaning.
When to use it
- Use it when an application needs to rename, move, retire, or unretire an asset.
- Use it when a modeling tool is building, governing, resolving, or inspecting the asset and attribute hierarchy.
Quick example
Set the base URL and replace generated identifiers or credentials with values from your installation.

Updated asset projection
Example 200 output
{
"asset_id": "00000000-0000-4000-8000-000000000001",
"parent_id": "00000000-0000-4000-8000-000000000001",
"name": "string",
"template_id": "00000000-0000-4000-8000-000000000001",
"retired": false,

"effective_timezone": "string",
"timezone_source_asset": "00000000-0000-4000-8000-000000000001"
}The cURL request sends the smallest contract-derived body and asks OrdinateDB to rename, move, retire, or unretire an asset. The documented 200 response is updated asset projection.
How it works
Assets form the composition hierarchy, attributes describe values on those assets, and time-bounded bindings connect attributes to stored series.
