```

## Responses

| Status | Description |
| --- | --- |
| 200 | The request was processed. `status` is `success` when the icon was saved. If the image passed validation but could not be resized or saved, the response is still 200, with `status: error` and a `message`. |
| 400 | The image is not a PNG, JPEG, GIF or WebP image, or it is not square. |
| 401 | Authentication failed: the `Authorization` header is missing or not in the `Bearer <key>` format, the API key does not exist, its workspace is unavailable or has no owner, or the workspace's plan does not include API access. `message` says which. |
| 403 | The API key cannot access the requested chatbot. A chatbot-scoped key used with another chatbot's ID gets `Access denied to this chatbot`. A workspace key gets `Chatbot <id> was not found in this API key's workspace. It may have been deleted or moved to another workspace.` when the chatbot does not exist or belongs to another workspace. |
| 429 | The workspace sent more than 600 API requests in the last minute. Wait the number of seconds given in the `Retry-After` header (and in `message`) before retrying. |
| 500 | No `image` file was sent, the image is larger than 1 MB, or the file cannot be read as an image (corrupt or truncated). The response is not JSON. |
