api key.update(privileges=new_privileges) results in "Exception: Unable to update app. No update params specified. (Error Code: 500)"

I'm trying to update the privileges for one of my API keys using Python but I'm getting this stack trace and error message:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "upload_shapefile_to_arc_as_feature.py", line 27, in <module>
api_key.update(http_referers=[], privileges=api_key_privileges)

raise Exception(errormessage)
Exception: Unable to update app.
No update params specified
(Error Code: 500)

Here's some code to recreate:

from arcgis.gis import GIS USERNAME = "" PASSWORD = "" API_KEY = "" ITEM_ID_TO_GIVE_PRIVILEGE_FOR = "" PRIVILEGE_TO_ADD = f'portal:app:access:item:{ITEM_ID_TO_GIVE_PRIVILEGE_FOR}' gis = GIS(username=USERNAME , password=PASSWORD ) api_key = gis.api_keys.get(API_KEY ) api_key_privileges = api_key.properties.privileges api_key_privileges.concat(PRIVILEGE_TO_ADD) api_key.update(privileges=api_key_privileges)

The documentation link for the method I'm trying to use is here.

Any help would be appreciated!

The issue was that there was a typo in the arcgis package source code. It's in my Python39/Lib/site-packages/arcgis/gis/_impl/_apikeys.py file, at line 159. It used to be:

params["priveleges"] = privileges

and changing it to

params["privileges"] = privileges

makes it work.
