-# UpdateStream
-
-Updates stream metadata, such as the device name and media type.
-
-You must provide the stream name or the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the stream.
-
-To make sure that you have the latest version of the stream before updating it, you can specify the stream version. Kinesis Video Streams assigns a version to each stream. When you update a stream, Kinesis Video Streams assigns a new version number. To get the latest stream version, use the `DescribeStream` API. 
-
-`UpdateStream` is an asynchronous operation, and takes time to complete.

-
-**ClientLimitExceededException**
-    
-
-Kinesis Video Streams has throttled the request because you have exceeded the limit of allowed client calls. Try making the call later.

-**ResourceInUseException**
-    
-
-When the input `StreamARN` or `ChannelARN` in `CLOUD_STORAGE_MODE` is already mapped to a different Kinesis Video Stream resource, or if the provided input `StreamARN` or `ChannelARN` is not in Active status, try one of the following : 
-
-  1. The `DescribeMediaStorageConfiguration` API to determine what the stream given channel is mapped to. 
-
-  2. The `DescribeMappedResourceConfiguration` API to determine the channel that the given stream is mapped to. 
-
-  3. The `DescribeStream` or `DescribeSignalingChannel` API to determine the status of the resource. 
-
