1. A method for wireless communication at a user equipment (UE), comprising:
receiving a system information block from a network entity;
determining, based at least in part on the system information block, that the network entity supports preconfigured uplink resources (PUR) for uplink transmissions from the UE using PUR without performing a random access procedure;
transmitting a PUR request message to the network entity based at least in part on the determining that the network entity supports PUR, wherein the PUR request message requests a new configuration of resources for one or more subsequent uplink transmissions using PUR and indicates whether a radio resource control message for acknowledgment of reception at the network entity of the one or more subsequent uplink transmissions using PUR is requested;
receiving a PUR configuration from the network entity that identifies PUR allocated to the UE for the uplink transmissions using PUR, wherein the PUR configuration is based at least in part on the PUR request message requesting the new configuration of resources; and
transmitting the uplink transmissions to the network entity using the PUR allocated to the UE.
