mutation · in the family Consumer
What it does
Edit a consumer profile — the shopper identity used by portals — change its details.
Edit a Consumer's mutable attributes. Requires the unrestricted capability + the record's CURRENT revision.
Careful
Edits take effect immediately and write a new revision; the old revision stays in history.

Returns
Consumer Consumer! — A Consumer — the B2C SHOPPER identity: WHO shops, as a per-merchant-group person (parentId === rootId — NOT a global identity; federated cross-merchant identity is the lock's flagged-not-now). B2C-SIMPLE INLINE: the NORMALIZED login email + displayName + bounded phones + the inline address book (≤16; shipping/billing roles + at most ONE default per side). the identity-marker rule: the (group × normalized email) UNIQ marker AMONG LIVE HOLDERS IS the login index — a live/suspended holder refuses CONFLICT/IDENTITY_TAKEN; ⚠ on erase (doom) the identifiers BURN within the group. FSM = the identity-family roster: active ⇄ suspended (the merchant abuse/fraud hold: punitive, ≠ the operational admin-pause; sessions go INERT via the live-status gate, reactivation restores) → doomed via erase (the DE-IDENTIFICATION terminal — PII scrub machinery lands; v1 the marker burns). Credentials NEVER ride this record; self-service rides the CONSUMER SESSION channel (consumerRegister/consumerLogin + the CONSUMER_SESSION_OPERATIONS roster); staff manage via THIS face. SEARCHABLE (the customer-book law). priceGroupId = the binding — the SUPERSEDE carrier: a consumer-named order resolves eligibility HERE, present-or-absent, NO member fall-through.

VALIDATION/INVALID— Something in the request is not valid. (VALIDATION)AUTHN/REQUIRED— Sign in to do this. (AUTHN)AUTHZ/FORBIDDEN— Your role does not allow this action.

Dry run
Add dryRun: true to the request envelope (extensions.at) to rehearse this call: every check runs, the write is rehearsed against the current records and nothing is stored; the answer is the refusal a real call would give, or the record it would create. Every response to a rehearsal carries dryRun: true, so a rehearsed record is never mistaken for a saved one.
