# Modifying Message Flow Settings

> For the full documentation index, see: https://docs.mulesoft.com/llms.txt

Active message flows between you and your partners don’t require much maintenance. However, you
might need to:

- Change flow identifiers, endpoints, or maps.

- Switch from a sandbox environment and reclaim production-environment resources.

- Delete the flow when it becomes inactive, as described in
  [Deleting Message Flows](https://docs.mulesoft.com/partner-manager/latest/delete-message-flows).

> [!IMPORTANT] Before making changes, carefully consider the impact on the message flow.

## Modify the Settings of an Inbound Message Flow

To modify the settings of an inbound message flow:

1.  In the sidebar, select **Message Flows**.

2.  On the **Message flows** page, select the message flow to modify.

3.  Change any of the following settings:

    <table><colgroup><col> <col> <col></colgroup><thead><tr><th><strong>Setting</strong></th><th><strong>Actions</strong></th><th><strong>Additional Information</strong></th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td><p>Receive from &lt;partner&gt;</p></td><td><p>Select different identifiers for the partner.</p></td><td><p><a href="https://docs.mulesoft.com/partner-manager/latest/partner-manager-identifiers">Partner Manager Identifiers</a></p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Receiving endpoint &lt;endpoint name&gt;</p></td><td><div><div><ul><li><p>Select a different receiving endpoint.</p></li><li><p>(AS2 endpoint) Select a different AS2 sender.</p></li><li><p>(AS2 endpoint) View the AS2 certificate associated with the endpoint.</p></li></ul></div></div></td><td><div><div><ul><li><p><a href="https://docs.mulesoft.com/partner-manager/latest/create-endpoint">Creating Endpoints</a></p></li><li><p><a href="https://docs.mulesoft.com/partner-manager/latest/partner-manager-identifiers">Sender and Receiver Identifiers</a></p></li><li><p><a href="https://docs.mulesoft.com/partner-manager/latest/certificates">Certificate Settings</a></p></li></ul></div></div></td></tr><tr><td><p>Source message</p></td><td><div><div><ul><li><p>Select a different receive from partners message type.</p></li><li><p>(EDIFACT or X12 message type) View current validation settings.</p></li><li><p>(EDIFACT or X12 message type) Indicate whether to send a 997 functional acknowledgment and select the endpoint to which to send the acknowledgment.</p></li></ul></div></div></td><td><div><div><ul><li><p><a href="https://docs.mulesoft.com/partner-manager/latest/partner-manager-create-message-type">Creating Message Types</a></p></li><li><p><a href="https://docs.mulesoft.com/partner-manager/latest/edi-ack-reconciliation">EDI Acknowledgement Reconciliation</a></p></li></ul></div></div></td></tr><tr><td><p>Map</p></td><td><p>View the associated translation map, add additional source attributes to the map, or import another one.</p></td><td><div><div><ul><li><p><a href="https://docs.mulesoft.com/partner-manager/latest/partner-manager-maps">Translation Maps</a></p></li><li><p><a href="https://docs.mulesoft.com/partner-manager/latest/access-source-message-attributes">Adding Additional Source Attributes to a Translation Map</a></p></li></ul></div></div></td></tr><tr><td><p>Target at &lt;host&gt;</p></td><td><div><div><ul><li><p>Select a different Target at Host message type.</p></li><li><p>Select a different Target at Host endpoint.</p></li></ul></div></div></td><td><div><div><ul><li><p><a href="https://docs.mulesoft.com/partner-manager/latest/partner-manager-create-message-type">Creating Message Types</a></p></li><li><p><a href="https://docs.mulesoft.com/partner-manager/latest/create-endpoint">Creating Endpoints</a></p></li></ul></div></div></td></tr></tbody></table>

4.  Verify that any modified sections of the flow show a green checkmark next to them and then click
    **Deploy** to deploy the updated message flow to Mule.

    > [!NOTE] It can take five minutes or so for your configuration changes to sync with Mule.

5.  To test your modified message flow, see
    [Deploying and Testing Message Flows](https://docs.mulesoft.com/partner-manager/latest/deploy-message-flows).

After you confirm the successful deployment of your message flow, you can track its processed
messages from the **Activity** page.

## Modify the Settings of an Outbound Message Flow

To modify the settings of an outbound message flow:

1.  In the sidebar, select **Message Flows**.

2.  On the **Message flows** page, select **<Message flow name>**.
