Errors / brand_required

A brand is required

HTTP 422invalid_requestbrand_required

That country will not register a sender without a brand behind it.

What to do

Create a brand — the legal entity responsible for the traffic — at PUT /v1/registration/brand, then register the sender. It is needed for the US, Canada, India, Saudi Arabia, the UAE and Singapore, and for nowhere else.

What it looks like

{
  "error": {
    "type": "invalid_request",
    "code": "brand_required",
    "message": "…",
    "doc_url": "https://docs.textmast.com/errors/brand_required",
    "request_id": "req_01j8xk2p7n4qc3m9v0wz5bt6ay"
  }
}

Quote the request_id if you get in touch. It is on every response, including this one, and it turns a support email into a single log query rather than an archaeology exercise.
