# Update deal stage

> Move a deal to another sales stage or pipeline. Inputs, cURL, Python and Node.js examples and an example response.

Source: https://cotlet.dev/docs/api/vtiger/update_deal_stage

Docs sections: [Get started](https://cotlet.dev/docs.md) · [REST API](https://cotlet.dev/docs/api.md) · [MCP](https://cotlet.dev/docs/mcp.md) · [SDKs & CLI](https://cotlet.dev/docs/sdks.md) · [Integrations](https://cotlet.dev/docs/integrations.md)

Move a deal to another sales stage or pipeline.

Vtiger API: https://cotlet.dev/docs/api/vtiger.md

`PATCH https://cotlet.dev/api/v1/vtiger/records/{record_id}/deal-stage`

Access: write. Confirm: waits for the user's OK before it runs.

Moves one deal like dragging it between columns of the Kanban view. With pipeline, it does what Change Pipeline does: pick the new pipeline and stage, and optionally the probability. A stage name your pipeline does not have fails, and the error lists the stages. Contacts can get emails from your Vtiger workflows when a stage changes. By default you confirm each call; you can switch that off for this tool.

## Parameters

| Name | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `record_id` | string | yes | Deal record id from list_deals. |
| `sales_stage` | string | yes | Target sales stage, named as in the pipeline. |
| `pipeline` | string | no | Target pipeline, only to move the deal to another pipeline. |
| `probability` | integer | no | Probability in percent, optional. |

## For AI agents: sign your user up

Is your user asking you to sign them up for Cotlet? You can do it for them, no account or key needed.

1. Read the fields and their allowed values: GET https://cotlet.dev/api/v1/access-requests
2. Ask the user for each value: email, apps, what you will do with them. If they leave the password to you, generate a strong one and show it to them.
3. Show the user what you will send, then POST it as JSON to https://cotlet.dev/api/v1/access-requests.

One call creates the account and sends the access request; we email the user when access is granted.
