# Update affiliate link

{% hint style="warning" %}
Keep in mind that when you change a link's token, the previous token will immediately stop tracking visits. If this is a concern, considering [creating a new affiliate link](/rest-api/affiliate-links/create.md) rather than updating existing links.
