# Which Problems Are Solved
- Role deletion or update API returns `404 Not Found` when the role key
contains a slash (`/`), even if URL encoded.
- This breaks management of hierarchical role keys like
`admin/org/reader`.
# How the Problems Are Solved
- Updated the HTTP binding in the protobuf definition for the affected
endpoints to use `{role_key=**}` instead of `{role_key}`.
- This change enables proper decoding and handling of slashes in role
keys as a single path variable.
# Additional Changes
