Updating branding options for a tenant

  1. Authenticate to the cloud platform via the Python shell.

    The following variables should be available now:

    >>> base_url  # the base URL of the API
    'https://eu2-cloud.acronis.com/api/2'
    >>> auth  # the 'Authorization' header value with the access token
    {'Authorization': 'Bearer eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJSUzI1NiIsImtpZCI6ImMwMD...'}
    >>> tenant_id  # the UUID of the tenant to which the token provides access
    'ede9f834-70b3-476c-83d9-736f9f8c7dae'
    
  2. Assign either of the following values to the tenant_id variable – the UUID of a sub-tenant created via the API or a sub-tenant found by its name:

    >>> tenant_id = created_tenant_id
    >>> tenant_id
    '0fcd4a69-8a40-4de8-b711-d9c83dc000f7'
    
  3. Obtain the number of the latest tenant revision. You will have to specify this number in a subsequent request to the tenant. This is required to manage concurrent tenant modifications.

    1. Fetch the tenant information as described in steps 3-5 of “Fetching information about an individual tenant”. As the result, you should have a tenant variable with the tenant object.

    2. Define a variable named tenant_version, and then assign the value of the version key from the tenant object to this variable:

      >>> tenant_version = tenant['version']
      >>> tenant_version
      3
      
  4. Define a variable named params, and then assign an object with the version key containing version of the tenant to this variable:

    >>> params = {
    ...     'version': tenant_version
    ... }
    
  5. Define a variable named branding_options, and then assign an object with branding options to this variable:

    >>> branding_options = {
    ...     'company_name': 'FooBar',
    ...     'color_scheme': 'orange'
    ... }
    

    Note

    • You can fetch the list of available color schemes by sending a GET request to the /logic/color_schemes endpoint.

    • For more information on available branding options, refer to the API reference.

  6. Convert the branding_options object to a JSON text:

    >>> branding_options = json.dumps(branding_options, indent=4)
    >>> print(branding_options)
    {
        "company_name": "FooBar",
        "color_scheme": "orange"
    }
    
  7. Send a PUT request to the /tenants/{tenant_id}/brand endpoint:

    >>> response = requests.put(
    ...     f'{base_url}/tenants/{tenant_id}/brand',
    ...     headers={'Content-Type': 'application/json', **auth},
    ...     data=branding_options,
    ...     params=params,
    ... )
    
  8. Check the status code of the response:

    >>> response.status_code
    200
    

    Status code 200 means that branding options has been updated. Version number of the tenant will be also increased by 1.

    A different status code means that an error has occurred. For the details, refer to “Status and error codes”.

    Also, the response body contains an object with branding options formatted as a JSON text. When converted to an object, it will look as follows:

    >>> pprint.pprint(response.json())
    {'account_server_url': 'mc-cloud.acronis.com',
     'backup_console_url': 'mc-cloud.acronis.com/bc',
     'color': '000000',
     'color_scheme': 'default',
     'company_name': 'FooBar',
     'help_url': 'api/ams/links/help',
     'hide_predefined': 1,
     'home_url': 'www.acronis.com',
     'knowledgebase_url': 'kb.acronis.com/errorcode/',
     'logotype': '2f8ad2e2-28f2-11e7-aad1-5ffe2ad47151',
     'mobile_app_android_download_url': 'www.mobile.com/download',
     'mobile_app_ios_download_url': 'www.mobile.com/download',
     'owns_custom_legal_docs': True,
     'platform_terms_url': 'terms.acronis.com',
     'privacy_policy_url': 'https://www.acronis.com/company/privacy.html',
     'router_url': 'cloud.acronis.com',
     'service_name': 'myservice',
     'smtp_encryption': 'TLS',
     'smtp_override': 1,
     'smtp_password': '',
     'smtp_port': 465,
     'smtp_reply_address': 'noreply@mycompany.com',
     'smtp_server': 'smtp.mycompany.com',
     'smtp_user': 'smtpuser',
     'support_phone': '+1 1111 1111111',
     'support_url': 'support.acronis.com',
     'terms_url': 'terms.acronis.com',
     'upsell_url': 'www.partner.com/buy',
     'user_guide_url': 'guide.acronis.com'}
    
  9. [Optional] Increase the value of the the tenant_version variable by 1:

    >>> tenant_version = tenant_version + 1
