organization_id is required

Error message

organization_id is required

What it means

Input validation in the organization update endpoint (/organization/update). The request was deserialized into LiteLLM_OrganizationTableUpdate, but the resulting update payload carries no organization_id, so there is no organization row to apply the changes to. Fires when a client omits organization_id in the update body (it cannot be inferred from the API key). Include the organization_id of an existing organization.
