Updates the label validation settings of your project.

### Parameters

* **project\_id:** string
  * The unique identifier for the project. You can find the project ID in [the user interface](https://docs.imerit.net/sdk/sdk-documentation/..#project-ids) or retrieve it using the [`list_projects`](https://docs.imerit.net/sdk/sdk-documentation/project-level-sdk-functions/list_projects) function.
* **custom\_validation\_enabled:** bool, *Optional, default None*
  * Enables or disables custom label validation logic for the project.
* **validation\_function:** string, *Optional, default None*
  * A Javascript source code string that defines the custom label validation logic executed by the platform.
* **external\_validation:** dict, *Optional, default None*
  * Configuration for delegating validation to an external system or service.
  * Available only for PCT projects.

```python
external_validation = {
    "enabled": True,            # bool: Enable/disable external validation
    "apiUrl": "https://...",    # str:  Validation API endpoint URL
    "singleFrame": False,       # bool: Validate only a single frame
    "specificFrame": False,     # bool: Validate a specific frame (or set of frames)
    "frameNumbers": 5           # int:  Number of frames to validate
}
```

Returns:

* **output:** dict
  * A dictionary containing the result of the operation.
  * Including a `status` field indicating whether the request was successful and a `data` field containing the response payload with updated resources produced by the operation.
