Benjamin,

It looks like your goal is to change the parent. In that case this is the
PATCH format to use:

PATCH http://localhost:8080/api/organisationUnits/uwxbuyaEU2j/parent
{"parent":"hyAZBROiSX5"}


https://docs.dhis2.org/2.24/en/developer/html/dhis2_developer_manual_full.html#d7652e1702


Best,

Vlad
