Customiser colour scheme
Get the customiser colour scheme
Retrieve the colours the customer customiser is drawn in, as one
document: the main colours (primary_colour, secondary_colour,
text_colour, background_colour), the price and discount colours, the
modal, control bar and save form colours, and the colours of the live
preview (visualisation_background_colour, visualisation_text_colour).
Overview
Each value is a hex colour, or null when the customer customiser uses its
built-in default for that colour.
A customiser that has never saved a colour scheme reads every colour as
null with updated_at null; the read does not create one. The operation
is read-only, has no side effects, and is always safe to retry. Requires
the customisers:read scope.
A 404 problem with code resource_not_found means the customiser does not
exist on the store your API key belongs to. A 401 problem means the key is
missing, invalid, or expired; a 403 problem with code
insufficient_scope means the key lacks customisers:read; a 429 problem
means too many requests: wait retry_after seconds, then retry. Error
responses use RFC 9457 problem+json with a machine-readable code and a
request_id to quote when contacting support.
