Update an automation - SendStreak API v2

Updates an automation. Automation fields are interdependent, so send the complete automation object rather than a sparse patch.

PATCH/v2/accounts/{accountId}/automations/{automationId}

Base URL https://api.sendstreak.com. All v2 endpoints require a bearer token - see Authentication.
