Set how the AI inbox replies on ONE channel — shorter for SMS, more formal for Google reviews, and so on. These sit under the account-wide instructions and govern where the two disagree. Pass an empty string to clear the channel's own wording. Not for whether that channel sends on its own — that is `inbox.set_channel_autonomy`. ## OpenAPI ````yaml /openapi.json post /api/v1/tools/inbox.set_channel_reply_instructions openapi: 3.1.0 info: title: Goosy Bear API version: 1.0.0-beta summary: Manage workspace content, projects, Data tables, Pages, library and credits. description: >- BETA. This API is in beta: paths, request shapes and response envelopes may change, and every response carries an `x-goosy-api: beta` header for as long as that is true. A change is additive, or it is deprecated first: a response to a call that uses a deprecated feature carries `Deprecation` and `Sunset` headers, and nothing is removed until at least 90 days after its deprecation. Pin the OpenAPI document you generated against and re-generate when it changes. servers: - url: https://app.goosybear.ai description: Production security: - tenantApiKey: [] paths: /api/v1/tools/inbox.set_channel_reply_instructions: post: tags: - inbox summary: Call inbox.set_channel_reply_instructions description: >- Set how replies should sound on ONE channel — 'keep SMS replies short', 'be more formal on Google reviews', 'reply differently on Instagram'.

Send it as `Authorization: Bearer `. A key carries its holder's own permissions, resolved on every call — revoking a membership closes the key's reach immediately.
