Set the organization's brand

PUT /settings/brand

Set the organization's brand, whole: businessName, brandColour (the header band and buttons — its text colour is chosen to read at 4.5:1 or better), accentColour (links and figures on the white page), contact, footer and terms.

The logo is its own upload and stays. 422 BrandColourContrast when the accent reads below 4.5:1 on white. Appends notifications.brand-saved. Idempotent by content: saving the brand as it stands appends nothing.

Access

Requires settings:write.

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

Retries

Idempotent by content: saving the brand as it stands appends nothing.

Why every write carries a key: Idempotency and retries.

Facts appended

notifications.brand-saved

What a fact is: Facts and the journal.

AI agent tool

No agent tool. The name, colours, footer and terms every customer's emails and pages wear are the owner's call in Settings › Brand, where they are previewed; an agent reads them with notifications_get_brand.

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
`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.

`422`

Refusal	What it means	What to do
`BrandColourContrast` colour, ratio, minimum	The accent reads below 4.5:1 on white.	Fix the request. Sending it again unchanged gets the same answer.

`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.
