Update the current user's notification preferences. Only provided fields are updated (partial update).

Channel Types:

Set to false to opt out of a channel globally:

{
  "channel_types": {
    "email": false,
    "sms": false
  }
}

Notiflow Preferences:

Override settings for specific notiflows:

{
  "notiflows": {
    "notiflow_uuid": {
      "enabled": false
    }
  }
}

Or disable specific channels for a notiflow:

{
  "notiflows": {
    "notiflow_uuid": {
      "enabled": true,
      "channel_types": {
        "email": false
      }
    }
  }
