Update Connection
Set authentication information associated with a merchant's account on the tax provider's infrastructure:
- [HTTP Basic Authentication](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Authentication) (developer.mozilla.org) credentials
- (optional) Tax provider profile used in customized endpoint urls for tax provider calls. This is only available for tax providers that support this feature.
The configured `username`, `password`, and `profile` (if available) are used to authenticate each API request to the Tax Provider from the associated store.
The tax provider's `profile` will be included in the URL for [Tax Provider API](/developer/api-reference/rest/tax-provider) endpoints.
