}Put a version's subject and body back, as the dashboard's version restore does. It is an update, so the update rules apply: a system template, or one a live campaign renders, is a 409 naming why (Get a template's usage says so up front). On a published template the restore adds a new version; history is never rewritten. Takes no body. Requires the templates:write capability.

subjectrequired | string | null | — |
statusrequired | enumdraft | published | — |
editor | enumsimple | design | code | Which editor this template is authored in — and so which body field updates it. `design`: built from @unitpost/email components (the dashboard's Design tab) — update with `tsx`. `simple`: a plain, personal Gmail-style email (the Simple tab) — update with `text`. `code`: raw HTML (the Code tab) — update with `html`. Keep the editor unless the user asked to switch; to switch, send the other body field or `editor` alone to convert the current body. |
kindrequired | enumsimple | designed | The coarse kind: `simple` (editor `simple`) or `designed` (editor `design` or `code`). Prefer `editor`. |
preview_text | string | Inbox preview text: the snippet most inboxes show after the subject. Empty when unset. |
category | enumtransactional | marketing | `marketing` (a campaign can send it; it gets the unsubscribe footer at send) or `transactional` (receipts, sign-in codes, notifications: no footer, and campaigns refuse it). Change it with `category` on an update. |
html | string | null | — |
tsx | string | null | A `design` template's body as @unitpost/email component TSX, wrapped in the `<Email …>` element that carries its theme, preview text and category — edit it and send it back as `tsx`. Null for `simple` and `code` templates. Present on single reads; omitted from list rows. |
text | string | null | A `simple` template's body in the Simple `text` format: edit it and send it back as `text`. Null for `design` and `code` templates, and for a Simple email the format can't carry whole (an indented line): change that one in the dashboard, or send a whole new `text`. Present on single reads; omitted from list rows. |
warnings | string[] | Create or update only: what changed that you didn't write, in plain words — markup the Simple format removed from `text`, `<Email>` attributes or theme values that were ignored, what an `editor` conversion flattened or couldn't keep, a `tsx` write that switched the template's editor. Absent when nothing did. Tell the user. |
