| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| menu_item_id | Yes | ||

| menu_order | No | ||
| menu_active | No | ||
| _clear_fields | No | Column names to clear to empty string. Available on every `update*` operation. Works on base columns AND EAV/`users_meta` rows (rows preserved with `value=""`). To actually clear a field you MUST use this parameter — sending the field with `""` alone is a no-op (BD drops empty values). To remove a `users_meta` row entirely, use `deleteUserMeta`. See **Rule: Clearing fields**. Example: `_clear_fields: ["h2", "hero_link_url"]`. |
