204 status from Custom Connector, no changes made

Question

Hello,

I created a custom connector to update the "employeeLeaveDateTime" user attribute in Entra. The request succeeds and returns a 204 status code but when I check the changes in MS Graph nothing has changed. Does anyone know why? Should I receive a 200 status instead? Below is a copy of my API definition.

I figured out that it accepts the value as the trigger for the lifecycle process and returns the value to null if queried. the trigger is still set in the lifecycle process and the actions in the tasks process.
