Modify an Object - Kotlin SDK

To modify an object stored within a realm:

1. Open a write transaction with realm.write() or realm.writeBlocking().

2. Query the transaction's mutable realm with realm.query(). Specify the object type as a type parameter passed to query(). To ensure your query returns the correct object, filter with unique identifying information such as a primary key value.

3. Change an object property within the write transaction. The SDK automatically persists changes to the realm.

realm.write {
    // fetch a frog from the realm by primary key
    val frog: Frog? =
        this.query<Frog>("_id == $0", PRIMARY_KEY_VALUE).first().find()
    // modify the frog's age in the write transaction to persist the new age to the realm
    frog?.age = 42
}
