I am strictly following the Pricing Plans V3 REST Documentation to update a plan. I am sending a **Complete Payload** (not partial) without

```javascript
fieldMask

```

. My payload includes:

- **id** ,

- 

```javascript
pricingVariants

```

(Array of 1)

- 

```javascript
pricingVariants[0].fees

```

(Array, empty or filled)

- 

```javascript
pricingVariants[0].billingTerms

```

(Complete object)

- 

```javascript
image

```

(tried both String URI and Object

```javascript
{id: ...}

```

)

**The Error:**

```javascript
{ "message": "Invalid patch. Patch failed due to missing hierarchies: UNKNOWN", "code": "INVALID_PATCH" }

```

**Crucial Question:** Which **SPECIFIC** field is missing from the hierarchy? Your docs say

```javascript
fees

```

and

```javascript
billingTerms

```

are mandatory, I am sending them. What else is implicitly required?

**Payload Example:** (Paste the JSON payload you are sending here)

Hey LevantUsta,
