"description": "Use the Template REST APIs to programmatically manage the email templates that you have stored on the Braze dashboard, on the Templates & Media page. Braze provides two endpoints for creating and updating your email templates.\n\n> Use the endpoints below to update email templates on the Braze dashboard. You can access an email template's `email_template_id` by navigating to it on the Templates and Media page. The email template creation API endpoint will also return an `email_template_id` reference.<br><br>All fields other than the `email_template_id` are optional, but you must specify at least one field to update.\n\n### Request Parameters\n| Parameter | Required | Data Type | Description |\n| --------- | ---------| --------- | ----------- |\n|`email_template_id`| Required |String|Your email template's API Identifier.|\n|`template_name`|Optional|String|The name of your email template|\n|`subject`|Optional|String|The email template subject line|\n|`body`|Optional|String|The email template body that may include HTML|\n|`plaintext_body`|Optional|String|A plaintext version of the email template body|\n|`preheader`|Optional|String|The email preheader used to generate previews in some clients|\n|`tags`|Optional|String|Tags must already exist|\n|`should_inline_css`|Optional|Boolean|Enables or disables the 'inline_css' feature per template.

One of 'true' or 'false' was expected\"` - 'should_inline_css' accepts boolean characters only. The error likely is being shown as the value is being sent as a 'string'."
