## Introduction

Updates a step.

Each time the step is updated, `revision` increments by 1. The current `revision` must be passed when updating the step. This ensures you're working with the latest step and prevents unintended overwrites.

Use this method to update step content and quiz settings.
To move a step within a section or to another section, call [MoveStep](https://dev.wix.com/docs/api-reference/business-management/online-programs/steps/move-step.md) instead of updating `step.sectionId`.
To attach a quiz to the step, create or clone the quiz separately, then specify its ID in `step.quizOptions.id`.

To update multiple steps in a single API call, call [BulkUpdateSteps](https://dev.wix.com/docs/api-reference/business-management/online-programs/steps/bulk-update-steps.md).

### updateStep (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 { steps } from '@wix/online-programs';
// Import the auth strategy for the relevant access type
// Import the relevant host module if needed

const myWixClient = createClient ({
  modules: { steps },
  // Include the auth strategy and host as relevant
});


async function updateStep(_id,step) {
  const response = await myWixClient.steps.updateStep(_id,step);
};
