Usage

  • template_name must be unique within the account; duplicates return InvalidParameter.
  • The server validates every non-empty channel template by rendering it against a mock incident — a syntactic error in any channel fails the whole request with InvalidParameter.
  • Every call is recorded in the account audit log. Don’t put secrets in request fields.
