Styles

Choose from built-in professional visual styles or create your own custom styles to match your brand and content. Each style has a unique ID that you'll need to pass as the style_id parameter in your API requests. In the Napkin app, this same value is shown as the brand ID.

Built-in Styles

Choose from 21 professional visual styles. Each built-in style has a unique ID that you can use directly in your API requests. In the app, that same identifier is the brand ID.

Earlier Style IDs

These style IDs still produce a visual, and each one renders with the refreshed version of its style rather than the default style. Two things to expect in the response: style_id on the generated file is the refreshed ID from the table above, not the one you sent, and the response carries an invalid_style_id warning even though your style was applied. Send the refreshed ID to avoid that warning.
