Request Parameters

Attribute	Required	Type	Description
token_id	true	string	Card Token identifier
expiration_month	false	integer	The 2-digit expiration month of the account number. Not required if the card token already stores this value.
expiration_year	false	integer	The 4-digit expiration year of the account number. Not required if the card token already stores this value.

The token_id must correspond to a card token in your tenant and the card must contain a number valid for the Visa or Mastercard networks. If the card number corresponds to a different network, the WRN_UNSUPPORTED_NETWORK result code will be returned.

If the card token is missing an expiration date, the expiration_month and expiration_year parameters must be provided. If the token already contains an expiration date, these parameters will override the token's expiration date when requesting updates from the network.
