Hi Renata,
```
user=> (clojure.pprint/pprint (swap! accounts #(map (fn [a] (if (= (:id a)
"3136860d-ab7f-4814-8f3b-2d18048db9b9") (assoc a :operations :foo) a)) %)))
({:id "7512a15b-0770-4a9b-a74b-389374b46461",
:balance 0.0,
:operations nil,
:blocked false}
{:id "7446cfe6-882c-4f25-bad1-5ed8c9aea994",
:balance 0.0,
:operations nil,
:blocked false}
{:id "3136860d-ab7f-4814-8f3b-2d18048db9b9",
:balance 0.0,
:operations :foo,
:blocked false}
{:id "2dc20615-f1f7-4637-9602-ae9494689166",
:balance 0.0,
:operations nil,

```
Your swapping function will have to be map since you're trying to update
some matching component of a vector. Then you can test if the current item
is your target `(if (= (:id a) …)` at which point you can change it `(assoc
a :operations …)`. Otherwise, you need to return it so you don't lose any
data.
Note that in this case it might make some sense to transform your data to a
map since that allows for simple key lookups and would allow for the use of
`assoc-in`:
```
