### updateFileDescriptor (self-hosted)
Self-hosted SDK calls require you to [create a client](https://dev.wix.com/docs/sdk/articles/work-with-the-sdk/about-the-wix-client.md).
```javascript
import { createClient } from '@wix/sdk';
import { files } from '@wix/media';
// Import the auth strategy for the relevant access type
// Import the relevant host module if needed
const myWixClient = createClient ({
modules: { files },
// Include the auth strategy and host as relevant
});
async function updateFileDescriptor(file) {
const response = await myWixClient.files.updateFileDescriptor(file);
};
```
