# Niche Switch

> Switch account niche by updating keywords and description, and resetting warmup

## Endpoint

```
POST https://api.ugc.inc/accounts/niche-switch
```

## Overview

Switch the niche for one or more accounts by updating their keywords and description. This automatically resets warmup so the accounts will re-warm with the new keywords.

<Warning>
  Niche switching resets all warmup progress for the affected accounts. They will need to re-warm from scratch with the new keywords.
