# Draft updates now honor field selection

Source: https://developer.nylas.com/docs/changelogs/2026-09-08-draft-update-field-selection/

## Fixed

The [Update Draft endpoint](/docs/reference/api/drafts/put-drafts-id/), `PUT /v3/grants/{grant_id}/drafts/{draft_id}`, now honors the `select` query parameter, matching the documented [field selection behavior](/docs/dev-guide/platform/field-selection/). Before this fix, the endpoint ignored `select`.

This fix applies to JSON and multipart requests across all supported email providers: Google, Microsoft Graph and Exchange, iCloud, Yahoo, and IMAP.

When you specify `select`, the response's `data` object includes only the requested fields. For example, `?select=id,subject` returns the draft's `id` and `subject` in `data`. The top-level `request_id` remains unchanged.

If your integration uses `select`, explicitly include every response field it needs, including `id` and `grant_id` if you use them. Field selection only affects the response. It doesn't change which draft fields Nylas updates or saves.

Requests without `select` continue to return the full draft response. Other draft endpoints and sending behavior remain unchanged.
