Hi, no there is no PUT method because measurements cannot be changed once created. You will need to delete and create a new one if you want to change something. Harald ---

Hi Harald, I was also thinking to follow the approach to delete and recreate. Thanks a lot for your response. Regards P. Sethu pandia raja ---

Hi Sumit, create a separate thread next time you want to ask a question which isn’t relevant to the current thread. About your question, have a look at this [thread](https://community.cumulocity.com/t/i-want-to-register-custom-measurement-templates-via-mqtt/7751/2) in which Philipp describes how to create custom templates. Best regards Christian ---
