I do not see it in the api spec for v3.00 is there a more updated api reference?

All I want to do is leave the lists and cards and ids for everything in place and change the name of the board, through the api. I would have assume that was "put boards" with a title field in the body, meaning leaving everything else intact. If the board id and everything inside of it does not change its just an attribute, correct? LMK where I should be looking fro api doc. Thanks. Is it by chance a label?

so is label the same as board name? I mean from a PUT perspective? cards have titles and boards have labels? if not how do you change the name of a board?

      so if I put a label am I changing the name of the board or is label another parameter not the title?

          also the api doc indicates the path identifier is" the board" not the "id of the board" which is different syntax for all the other endpoints. and when I use the board id I am getting a 500.

            no it does not look like you can change any parameters like a title for a board as there does not seem to be a PUT api entry point. Its labels are not title in the Get board api endpoint

              can you point me to the code that handle board POST and card PUTS in the github repo? Thanks
