# Edit a model card


To edit a model card, navigate to the model card of your choice by selecting its name in the Amazon SageMaker Model Card console and choose **Edit**. 

After you save a model card, you cannot edit the name of that model card. After you save a model card version, you cannot update that version of the model card. Any edits that you need to make are saved as a subsequent version in order to have an immutable record of model changes. 

To view different versions of the model card, choose **Actions**, **Select version**, and then choose the version that you want to view.

You can edit a model card using the `model_card.update()` method. Updating a model card creates a new model card version in order to have an immutable record of model changes. You cannot update the name of a model card.

```
my_card.model_overview.model_description = "updated-model-decription"
my_card.update()
```
