# Replace an asset's labels

> Replaces the full set of labels on an asset with the ids in the body; labels not listed are removed, and an empty ids array clears them all. Every id must be a live label of your buyer company's catalog; unknown or cross-tenant ids are rejected with 400. The write is gated by the asset write permission: a key that can only read the asset gets 400. An unknown, deleted, or foreign asset id answers the same 400 as a denied write, so ids outside your tenant are not disclosed as 404s.



## OpenAPI

````yaml /openapi/buyer.json put /v1/buyer/asset/assets/{assetId}/labels
openapi: 3.1.0
info:
  title: OpenWrench Buyer API
  version: 1.0.0
  description: >-
    External REST API for OpenWrench buyers (facilities-management side).
    Generated from the application source (Play routes, controllers and models).


    ## Authentication

    Every request must carry a buyer API key in the `X-API-KEY` header. The key
    resolves to a buyer contact, and all reads/writes are tenant-scoped to that
    contact's buyer company (plus, on several endpoints, role-based
    location/brand restrictions). Endpoints under `/v1/buyer/super_admin/...`
    (and a few others noted per-operation) additionally require the key's
    contact to be a buyer super admin.


    ## Rate limiting

    10 requests per 20-second window per API key; requests beyond that receive
    **429**. A handful of operations noted per-operation bypass the rate
    limiter.


    ## Response envelope

    Single-entity responses: `{ "type": "<EntityName>", "data": { ... },
    "status": "ok" }`.

    List responses: `{ "type": "<EntityName>", "data": [ ... ], "count":
    <total>, "status": "ok" }`.

    count_by responses: `{ "type": "CountBy", "data": <integer>, "status": "ok"
    }`.

    Errors: `{ "message": "...", "type": "<ExceptionType>", "status": "error",
    "traceId": "..." }` — 401 missing/invalid key, 400 bad input, 404 not found,
    429 rate limit.


    ## Pagination & filtering

    List endpoints accept `offset`, `limit` (default 10, max 25 — the locations
    list clamps to 10), `sort_by` and `order` (asc|desc). Every other query
    parameter is treated as a filter and matched against the entity's indexed
    columns (multi-value filters are comma-separated strings); these are
    combined with the tenant-security filters derived from the API key.


    Timestamps are ISO 8601 strings unless noted otherwise.


    ## Date formats

    Date-time fields serialize as strings in one of two shapes depending on the
    underlying type: ISO 8601 with offset (e.g. `2026-08-14T13:05:22.000-07:00`)
    for most timestamps, or `yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.S` (space-separated, no offset)
    for database timestamp fields. Plain dates are `yyyy-MM-dd`. When sending
    date-times, ISO 8601 is accepted.


    ## Required headers

    Every request must carry BOTH `X-API-KEY` (your API key) and `OW-KEY` (the
    OpenWrench shared secret issued with it). Requests missing either return
    401.
