append/update a database entry

[B0TAlan]

hello,

I am wondering how you would update a specific entry in a database
I can get the data of all the entries and find an entry by a title but
I can't seem to figure out how to change any of the entry's properties

this is the inline database I am testing with:

I want to be able to change one of the properties in a certain row
for example, changing the title of "task 1" to something else

I have tried changing this line but it gives me an error stating it's missing the page ID (I have tried adding it before the database ID but to no avail):
client.pages.update(**{ "parent": { 'database_id': datID }, "properties": { "Name": { "title": [ { "type": "text", "text": { "content": "new Name" } } ] } } })

please let me know what I am doing wrong or where the documentation is about updating database entries because I have been unable to find it

thank you for your time,
B0T_Alan

I found this article which led to this GitHub which then I modified to have a function that did what I wanted
modded code:

    'class DatabaseBase()
    def updateByTitle(self, header, title, row_cells): # modded 'updateByNumber' to gets row by the title 
    db_rows = self.query()
    page_id = None
    for row in db_rows['results']:
        user_id = safe_get(row, 'properties.' + header + '.title.0.plain_text')
        
        if user_id == title:
            page_id = row["id"]
    
    if not page_id:
        print("not find recork with header = {}, title = {}".format(header, title))
    #else: print(page_id)
    
    properties = {}
    for cell in row_cells:
        properties[cell.name] = contentGen(cell.type)(cell.data)
    
    self.updateRow(page_id, properties)`

class DatabaseClient
def updateByTitle(self, header, title, **kwargs): # modded 'updateByNumber' to gets row by the title 
        '''
        update row by main key
        key: name of header
        title: title of the row
        kwargs: property needed to be updated
        '''
        cells = self._getRowData(**kwargs)
        return self.database.updateByTitle(header, title, cells)
