# Set or reset design system overrides for this project

`PATCH /v1/projectId/{projectId}/design-systems/{id}`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.bluefox.email`
- URL: `https://api.bluefox.email/v1/projectId/{projectId}/design-systems/{id}`
- Auth: HTTP bearer

Batch operation: setOverrides upserts one or more variable/font/component overrides by name, resetOverrides removes them (falling back to the base design system value). id must be the project's own design system (project.designSystemId) - this endpoint cannot be used to switch a project to a different design system, even one belonging to the same account.

## Path parameters

- `projectId` string, required
- `id` string, required

## Request body

- DesignSystemPatch
  - `setOverrides` object[]
    - `category` 'variables' | 'font' | 'components', required
    - `key` string, required: variables: colors|fontStacks|images|links|texts. font: resources|stacks. components: buttons|texts|images|dividers.
    - `name` string, required
    - `value` unknown, required
    - `main` boolean
    - `description` string
  - `resetOverrides` object[]
