Update Content of the Block landing.block.updatecontent

If you are developing integrations for Bitrix24 using AI tools (Codex, Claude Code, Cursor), connect the MCP server so that the assistant can utilize the official REST documentation.

Scope: landing

Who can execute the method: a user with "edit" access permission for the site

The method landing.block.updatecontent completely replaces the HTML content of a block in the page draft.

If you only need to change specific nodes, attributes, or styles of the block, use the methods landing.block.updatenodes, landing.block.updateattrs, and landing.block.updateStyles.
