Update customer profile
Updates the name, phone and birthday of the signed-in customer. Only the fields sent change. The response is the updated profile without merchant-side annotations.
For /api/vc/{connectionId}/* routes the connectionId (vc_*) is in the URL path — not a header. Live-mode requests must also send a matching Origin header.
In: header
Path Parameters
Sales channel ID (vc_*), the canonical salesChannelId. connectionId is the deprecated name of the same value and is still the literal path segment.
Header Parameters
Origin of the storefront page making the call, for example https://shop.example.com. Required: a request with no Origin header is refused with 403. On a LIVE channel its host must equal the channel's registered domain (or one of its subdomains) or match an allowed origin. A TEST channel with no domain accepts any origin; once a domain is set it is matched as on LIVE.
Customer token as Bearer <token>, returned by customers/login, customers/register or the OAuth callback. Expires after 7 days. It is a customer token, never an API key.
Version of the calling SDK (the Brainerce SDK sends it automatically). Informational: it is recorded on the channel and never changes the response.
First name.
Last name.
Phone number (E.164 format recommended).
Marketing consent flag, set by the customer themselves.
Birthday month (1-12). Month and day only, with no year: the birthday exists for the loyalty gift, and a year would be date-of-birth data we have no reason to hold. Send it together with birthDay or not at all, and send null for both to remove a stored birthday.
1 <= value <= 12Birthday day of month (1-31). Send it together with birthMonth or not at all, and send null for both to remove a stored birthday. The day must exist in that month, so 30 February is rejected.

}Get customer profile
Returns the profile of the customer identified by the token: name, email, phone, birthday (month and day only), verification state and addresses.
Get checkout prefill data
Returns the customer contact details and default address in the shape the checkout forms expect, so a signed-in shopper skips retyping them.
