The Brief Public REST API

The Brief's versioned REST API for creative automation — list and search designs, templates and brand templates, read a template's editable elements and size variants, submit exports with element changes and collect the rendered creatives, manage projects, folders, brand kits (colors, fonts, logos, assets, media folders), team users and roles, share links, design versions, credits and team webhooks, and drive The Brief's native ad server (enable/disable ad tags, update settings, generate network code or CM360/DV360 CSV/XLSX trafficking files, and pull delivery reports). JWT bearer auth, cursor pagination, a "response" envelope, and a published 15 req/10s (export) / 100 req/10s (everything else) per-team rate limit.
