# Update-DSPamAccount

### Synopsis

Update a pam account.

### Syntax

#### \_\_AllParameterSets

```
Update-DSPamAccount -PamAccount <psobject> [-Password <string>]
 [-Permission <PSPermissionWrapper[]>] [-ScriptConfigIDs <guid[]>] [-AsLegacyResponse]
 [<CommonParameters>]
```

### Description

Update a pam account. All modifications are made on the pam account object obtained from Get-DSPamAccount.

### Examples

```powershell
PS C:\> $pamAccount = Get-DSPamAccount -AccountID $accountID;
        $pamAccount.name = NewName;

```

Change the PAM entry name.

### Parameters

#### -AsLegacyResponse
