await client.webhooks.updateWebhookById(webhook.id!, {
  requestBody: {
    address: 'https://example.com/updated-webhook',
  } satisfies UpdateWebhookByIdRequestBody,
} satisfies UpdateWebhookByIdOptionalsInput);
client.webhooks.update_webhook_by_id(
    webhook.id, address="https://example.com/updated-webhook"
)
await client.Webhooks.UpdateWebhookByIdAsync(webhookId: NullableUtils.Unwrap(webhook.Id), requestBody: new UpdateWebhookByIdRequestBody() { Address = "https://example.com/updated-webhook" });
try await client.webhooks.updateWebhookById(webhookId: webhook.id!, requestBody: UpdateWebhookByIdRequestBody(address: "https://example.com/updated-webhook"))
client.getWebhooks().updateWebhookById(webhook.getId(), new UpdateWebhookByIdRequestBody.Builder().address("https://example.com/updated-webhook").build())
BoxWebHook webhook = new BoxWebHook(api, id);
BoxWebHook.Info info = webhook.new Info();
info.setAddress(url);
webhook.update(info);
update_object = {
    'triggers': ['FILE.COPIED'],
    'address': 'https://newexample.com',
}
webhook = client.webhook(webhook_id='12345').update_info(data=update_object)
print(f'Updated the webhook info for triggers: {webhook.triggers} and address: {webhook.address}')
var updates = new BoxWebhookRequest()
{
    Id = "12345",
    Address = "https://example.com/webhooks/fileActions
};
BoxWebhook updatedWebhook = await client.WebhooksManager.UpdateWebhookAsync(updates);
client.webhooks.update('678901', {address: "https://example.com/webhooks/fileActions"})
 .then(webhook => {
  /* webhook -> {
   id: '1234',
   type: 'webhook',
   target: { id: '22222', type: 'folder' },
   created_by:
