PUT /api/v1/users

The PUT API basically helps us update a user's record specified by user_id.

Go ahead and create a route with the PUT method to update the user records defined in the app.py file, as follows:

    @app.route('/api/v1/users/<int:user_id>', methods=['PUT']) 
    def update_user(user_id): 
     user = {} 
     if not request.json: 
         abort(400) 
     user['id']=user_id 
     key_list = request.json.keys() 
     for i in key_list: 
        user[i] = request.json[i] 
     print (user) 
     return jsonify({'status': upd_user(user)}), 200 

Let's specify the definition of the upd_user(user) function, which basically updates the information in the database with the check that the user id exists:

 def upd_user(user): conn = sqlite3.connect('mydb.db') print ("Opened database successfully"); cursor=conn.cursor() ...
