# ItemModifyJob Class Reference

`from PyKDE4.akonadi import *`

Inherits: Akonadi.Job → KCompositeJob → KJob → QObject
Namespace: Akonadi

## Detailed Description

Job that modifies an existing item in the Akonadi storage.

This job is used to writing back items to the Akonadi storage, after the user has changed them in any way. For performance reasons either the full item (including the full payload) can written back or only the meta data of the item.

Example:

     // Fetch item with unique id 125
     Akonadi.ItemFetchJob *fetchJob = new Akonadi.ItemFetchJob( Akonadi.Item( 125 ) );
     if ( fetchJob->exec() ) {
       Akonadi.Item item = fetchJob->items().first();

       // Set a custom flag
       item.setFlag( "\GotIt" );

       // Store back modified item
       Akonadi.ItemModifyJob *modifyJob = new Akonadi.ItemModifyJob( item );
       if ( modifyJob->exec() )
         qDebug() << "Item modified successfully";
       else
         qDebug() << "Error occurred";
     } else {
       qDebug() << "Error occurred";
     }
