Response

FieldTypeDescription
rights_idstringThe updated rights grant identifier
termsobjectUpdated contractual terms (same shape as acquire_rights acquired response)
generation_credentialsarrayRe-issued credentials with updated expiration and caps
rights_constraintobjectUpdated constraint for re-embedding in creative manifests
pausedbooleanWhether the grant is currently paused (included when pause state changes)
implementation_datedatetime|nullWhen changes take effect (null if pending approval)

Re-issued credentials

When you extend dates or change pricing, the rights agent re-issues generation credentials with updated expiration. Both old and new credentials may work during an overlap period — old credentials remain valid until their original expiry. Replace credentials in your creative pipeline promptly, but there is no hard cutover moment that would break in-flight generation requests. The updated rights_constraint should replace the constraint in any active creative manifests so downstream systems see the current terms.
