Update a client
Update a client. Only fields included in the payload are modified; omitted fields retain their previous values.

Path Parameters
Header Parameters
Unique key generated by the client to ensure idempotency on retries. It lets you safely resend the same request: the first response is cached and returned without re-executing the mutation. It is an opaque string to the server; any unique value of up to 64 characters is valid (UUID v7, UUID v4, ULID, nanoid, etc.). UUID v7 is recommended for consistency with the API identifiers. The same key reused with a different body returns 409 idempotency_key_reused.

}Get client stats
Aggregated KPIs for the authenticated company: total client count, active count, count with sales invoices, count with quotes, and totals by document type. Returned as `{ "data": ClientStats }`.
Verify a client against the AEAT census
Check a third-party name + tax ID pair (the recipient of an invoice) against the AEAT census (VNifV2) to anticipate VeriFactu 1239 rejections before invoicing. Stateless and informational: nothing is persisted on the client. Fail-open — if AEAT is unreachable the call returns 200 with `status: unavailable`. Test keys (`fact_test_`) return deterministic statuses per magic NIF without contacting AEAT.
