# Update global settings

URL: https://docs.sparklayer.io/developers/api/core/update-global-setting
Operation: `PATCH /api/v1/settings` (operationId `patchGlobalSetting`)
OpenAPI spec: https://docs.sparklayer.io/openapi/core.yaml

Updates one or more store-wide settings, sent as an array of `key`/`value` pairs, and returns `204`. Only a fixed set of setting keys can be updated.

API keys created in the SparkLayer Dashboard can't update global settings: the request is rejected with the message "Global settings unavailable for updates, please contact support". Contact support if you need to change them.

`PATCH /api/v1/settings`

**Base URLs:** `https://app.sparklayer.io` (Live), `https://test.app.sparklayer.io` (Test)

**Authentication:** send `Authorization: Bearer <access_token>` and `Site-Id: <site id>` with every request. Get the token from [Get an access token](https://docs.sparklayer.io/developers/api/core/get-an-access-token.md); see [Authentication](https://docs.sparklayer.io/developers/authentication.md).

  -d '[

    "key": "<key>",
    "value": null
  }
