Problems trying to update the subscribed "topic"

[DanielEFGS]

Greetings,

I have tried to make a PUT request to a webhook that I created, in order to modify the subscribed topic, as follows:

{
    "webhook": {
        "id": 1028087152804,
        "topic": "orders/create",
        "address": "https://xxxxxxx/api/shopify/response/31/",
        "format": "json"
    }
}

and I get the following response:

{
    "webhook": {
        "id": 1028087152804,
        "address": "https://xxxxxxx/api/shopify/response/31/",
        "topic": "orders/create",
        "created_at": "2021-04-16T12:53:32-04:00",
        "updated_at": "2021-04-19T09:41:33-04:00",
        "format": "json",
        "fields": [],
        "metafield_namespaces": [],
        "api_version": "2021-04",
        "private_metafield_namespaces": []
    }
}

As you can see, the answer is successful. Here comes the problem, making a GET request returns the initial value for "topic" (which is orders/fulfilled):

{
    "webhook": {
        "id": 1028087152804,
        "address": "https://xxxxxxx/api/shopify/response/31/",
        "topic": "orders/fulfilled",
        "created_at": "2021-04-16T12:53:32-04:00",
        "updated_at": "2021-04-19T09:41:33-04:00",
        "format": "json",
        "fields": [],
        "metafield_namespaces": [],
        "api_version": "2021-04",
        "private_metafield_namespaces": []
    }
}

 I tried with different versions of the API and there was no difference.

Hello @DanielEFGS ,

Unfortunately, that endpoint does not update the topic as it says in the documentation. To keep consistency with the GraphQL mutations, I'll update the documentation, and if you want to change the topic that you're subscribing to, simply create a new subscription to that topic and delete the original.
