# `update_script_preferences`

_Creator knowledge_

`write` `idempotent`

Update the brand's script preferences. Only the keys present in patch are replaced (a list key replaces the whole list); everything else is kept. formats must be taxonomy slugs (talking_head, voiceover_broll, listicle, tutorial, storytelling, reaction, pov, street_interview, day_in_life, podcast_clip, green_screen). defaultDurationSeconds 5-600 or null. Restrictions live elsewhere (add_restriction). Returns the full preferences document.

## Parameters
