Update an Exhibitor

The Update Exhibitor API allows event organizers and portal administrators to modify the details of an existing exhibitor who is participating in an event. This endpoint is particularly useful when an exhibitor updates their booth information, changes their contact details, or revises their company website, description, or associated metadata. The update ensures that all public-facing and internal records reflect the most current exhibitor data.
