User Settings - Management API

This section provides a basic example of how to update the user settings for your account using the Management API.

The request must include one or more operations. You can specify a different path for each operation, allowing you to update multiple settings at the same time.

Authentication

These requests require an access token, as described in Authenticate.

Update user settings

To update user settings with the Management API, use the PATCH <https://api.symbl.ai/v1/manage/settings> operation.

import fetch from 'node-fetch';

const accessToken = '<ACCESS_TOKEN>';
const settings = [
  {
    "op": "<OPERATION>",
    "path": "<PATH>",
    "value": "<VALUE>"
  },
  {
    "op": "<OPERATION>",
    "path": "<PATH>",
    "value": "<VALUE>"
  },
  ...
]

const fetchResponse = await fetch(`https://api.symbl.ai/v1/manage/settings`, {
  method: patch,
  body: JSON.stringify(settings),
  headers: {
    'Authorization': `Bearer ${accessToken}`,
    'Content-Type': 'application/json'
  }
});

const responseBody = await fetchResponse.json();

console.log(responseBody);

Where:

• <ACCESS_TOKEN> is a valid API access token.
• <OPERATION> is a valid RFC 6902 operation for the setting that you want to update. Usually this value is add, replace, or remove.
• <PATH> is the path that represents the setting that you want to update. For example, the path for the bookmark duration setting is /intelligence/bookmarks/duration.
• <VALUE> is the new value for the setting. The format and data type of the value depend on the setting you are updating.
• ... indicates that the object can be repeated multiple times.
