Replace the caller's push preferences

PUT /me/push/preferences

Replace the caller's push preferences: the kinds that reach their devices (enabled, every other kind off) and, optionally, quiet hours (start and end on a 24-hour clock in timeZone; an end before the start runs overnight).

A push raised in quiet hours waits for their end. Appends notifications.push-preferences-saved. Idempotent by content: saving what is held appends nothing.

Access

Requires a signed-in session: a person's own devices and preferences: the route reads and changes only the caller's

How scopes come from roles: Scopes and roles. Getting a token: Authentication and app tokens.

Retries

Idempotent by content: saving what is held appends nothing.

Why every write carries a key: Idempotency and retries.

Facts appended

notifications.push-preferences-saved

What a fact is: Facts and the journal.

AI agent tool

No agent tool. What reaches a person's phone and when it stays quiet is that person's choice under Settings › Push notifications, never an agent's.

Connecting an agent: AI agents.

The panel writes this call in other languages. It does not send it: Manifold's APIs do not take calls from a web page on another site, so run the call from your own code or terminal. The whole API as OpenAPI: notifications-manager.openapi.json. Base URL https://notifications.getmanifold.io.

Errors

Every refusal is a status and a JSON body whose _tag names it. A refused call changes nothing.

`401`

Refusal	What it means	What to do
`Unauthorized` reason	The token is missing, expired or not one Manifold issued.	Get a fresh token and send the call again.
`TokenAlreadyUsed` tokenId	A single-use app token was already spent.	Mint a new token for this call.

`402`

Refusal	What it means	What to do
`SubscriptionRequired` status	The organization's subscription has lapsed, so writes are refused.	An owner settles billing. Reads still work meanwhile.

`403`

Refusal	What it means	What to do
`PushNeedsPerson` reason	The request was refused. `reason` says why.	The caller may not do this. Use a token whose roles allow it.
`TenantRequired` userId	The token names no organization.	Choose the organization, then get a new token.
`ScopeRequired` required	The token's roles do not grant the scope this call needs.	Ask an owner or admin for a role that grants it.

`409`

Refusal	What it means	What to do
`MirroredFromSource` source	This area is fed by your source system until the organization goes live.	Make the change in the source system, or go live first.

`503`

Refusal	What it means	What to do
`RequestLogUnavailable` tokenId, reason	The service could not record the request, so it did nothing.	Send the same request again shortly.
