Adds a brand to the workspace's watchlist so its figures appear next to your
own. Pass a brand_id from a brand search.
Adding a brand records the one domain the panel sees the most of its mail
from, and every figure reported for the brand describes that domain. A brand
that mails from several domains therefore reports less than its full volume.
A brand the panel has never seen send cannot be measured at all and is
refused.
How many brands can be watched is capped per organization, counted across
every workspace it owns, so the same competitor watched from two workspaces
uses two of the allowance.
API-key, OAuth, and service-account calls require Insights preview access for your organization.
Treść żądania
brand_id
string
wymagane
Identifier of the brand in the panel's catalog, used to add it to the watchlist. It is a string for the same reason a campaign id is: the values are wide enough that a client storing every number as a floating point value would round them, and a rounded identifier matches no brand at all.

The watchlist entry.

name
string
wymagane
The brand's name when it was added. It is kept as it was so the row still reads correctly if the brand is later renamed or stops being tracked.
industry
nullable string
wymagane
The brand's industry when it was added, or null when the brand is not classified.
sending_domains
array of string
wymagane
The domains this brand's figures describe. Always one domain today, chosen as the one the panel sees the most of its mail from.
