Promote Template

Copy a test template onto production. Requires a production API key.

If a production template with the same user_id already exists, its content is replaced. Otherwise a new production template is created. The test template is left in place so you can keep iterating.

This is the only way a production key can act on a test template. Get, update, delete, and send with a production key only resolve production templates.

POST /templates/:template_id/promote
Example: /templates/welcome/promote

Path Parameters

template_id string required

The test template TypeID or user_id.
