Create Account Brand

Create Account Brand

Early Preview

This API is in early preview and may be subject to change. Please contact your account manager if you are interested in trying the Branding API.

Use this API to create a new branding configuration.

On successful creation of a new Account Brand an id value will be returned in the response.

To apply this brand to the login page for a specific application you need to take the newly created brand id value and update the applications brand_id attribute.

Resource URL

https://<subdomain>/api/2/branding/brands

Header Parameters

Authorization

required

string

Set to bearer <access_token>.

Set <access_token> to the access token you generated using the Generate Token API.

In order to use the Branding API your API Credentials must be created after 21st October 2020.

Content-Type

required

string

Set to application/json.

Request Parameters

name required string	Brand’s name for humans. This isn’t related to subdomains.
master boolean	Establishes a primary master brand. For accounts created prior to February, 2023 you may need assign this parameter true to your first brand before making full use of additional brands or customized message templates. All newer accounts will automatically have a primary brand created and do not need to be manually assigned.
enabled boolean	Indicates if the brand is enabled or not.`(default=false)`
custom_support_enabled boolean	Indicates if the custom support is enabled. If enabled, the login page includes the ability to submit a support request.
custom_color string	Primary brand color
custom_accent_color string	Secondary brand color
custom_masking_color string	Color for the masking layer above the background image of the branded login screen.
custom_masking_opacity number	Opacity for the `custom_masking_color`.
enable_custom_label_for_login_screen boolean	Indicates if the custom Username/Email field label is enabled or not.
custom_label_text_for_login_screen string	Custom label for the Username/Email field on the login screen. See example here.
login_instruction_title string	Link text to show login instruction screen.
login_instruction string	Text for the login instruction screen, styled in Markdown.
hide_onelogin_footer boolean	Indicates if the OneLogin footer will appear at the bottom of the login page.
mfa_enrollment_message string	Text that replaces the default text displayed on the initial screen of the MFA Registration.
background string	Base64 encoded image data (JPG/PNG, <5MB)
logo string	Base64 encoded image data (PNG, <1MB)

Parameter Notes

The background and logo parameters are both strings that contain the Base64 encoded (NOT Base64Url) data of a JPG or PNG image file (logo only accepts PNG). The size limits are < 5MB for the background and < 1MB for the logo. These limits apply only to the pre-encoded image, as the Base64 encoding a file increases the size of the data by 133%.

For convenience you might want to use this tool for Base64 image conversion.
Every payload parameter, except for name, is optional; therefore, a JSON object that only contains the name field can be passed to create a configuration with blank values. This is useful because when the login page accesses the branding and locates an app-level brand and a default account brand, any value not found in the app-level brand will be retrieved from the default brand instead.
The only field with a default value is enabled (which is false). Other omitted values are saved as NULL, which lets an app-level brand act as a mask over the default brand.
