# UpdateRole

## Permission Scope

role

## Overview

UpdateRole modifies the name and/or description of an existing role. All existing UserRole and RolePermission associations remain intact — only the role's metadata is changed.

Only ACTIVE roles can be updated. Inactive roles must be reactivated before modification.

## Business Rules

- Role must exist in the system
- Role must be in ACTIVE status
- New name must be unique across all roles (if name is being changed)
- New name is required and cannot be empty
