update_collection
Update a Shopify collection's title, description, or URL handle. Changing the handle breaks existing links because no automatic redirect is created.
Instructions
Update an existing collection's title, description (HTML), or URL handle. Only provide fields you want to change; omitted fields are left untouched. Changing the handle changes the storefront URL — Shopify does NOT create automatic redirects from the old slug, so existing links break. To change collection membership use add_products_to_collection / remove_products_from_collection instead.
