WhatsApp only changes this on an unregistered number, so LazyApp deregisters, changes it and registers again (usually under five minutes). If WhatsApp refuses, the number is registered again with its old setting. **Required scope:** `messages:send` ## OpenAPI ````yaml /api-reference/openapi.json put /v1/connections/{connection}/storage openapi: 3.1.0 info: title: LazyApp API version: v1 description: >- One WhatsApp API for developers, SaaS platforms and businesses. Every endpoint is Bearer-authenticated with a LazyApp API key, returns JSON, and is scoped to the workspace and mode (`live` or `test`) the key belongs to. Live keys need the Pro plan. A live key on a workspace below Pro gets `402` with `code: plan_limit_reached` on every request. Test keys work on every plan, so you can build against the test number before you upgrade. LazyApp adds 0% to Meta's message rates. Meta bills each message to the business's own Meta payment method; your LazyApp plan is billed separately. contact: name: LazyApp support url: https://lazyapp.in servers: - url: https://lazyapp.in description: Production security: - bearerAuth: [] tags: - name: Messages description: Send and schedule WhatsApp messages. - name: Contacts description: The people you message, and their identifiers. - name: Conversations description: Threads and their message history. - name: Calls description: WhatsApp call history for the workspace. - name: Templates description: Create, submit and sync message templates. - name: Media description: Upload, retrieve and delete media. - name: Broadcasts description: Template sends to many contacts at once. - name: Events description: Say what happened; LazyApp picks the template. - name: Flows description: WhatsApp Flows and their responses. - name: Webhooks description: Register endpoints and inspect deliveries. - name: Workflows description: Automations and their executions. - name: Verify description: One-time passcodes over WhatsApp. - name: Capabilities description: What each connected number supports. - name: Catalog description: Proxy Meta Commerce catalog products for a connection. - name: Platform description: Manage customers if you run a platform on LazyApp. - name: Meta-compatible proxy description: Drop-in endpoints for existing Cloud API integrations. - name: Connections description: >- Your WhatsApp numbers and the account behind them: health, limits, registration, display name, blue tick, QR codes, conversation starters, opt-in links, business profile and blocked users. - name: Billing description: >- Meta's message rates, which LazyApp passes on with 0% added, and the billing facts behind them. - name: Analytics description: Workspace messaging aggregates. - name: Groups description: WhatsApp group chats on a connection Meta has enabled. - name: Funding description: Local funding status and recorded WhatsApp charges. - name: Connections description: 'WhatsApp connections: block users, business profile, insights.' - name: Payments description: >- WhatsApp payments in India: ask for payment, follow it, update the order and refund. paths: /v1/connections/{connection}/storage: put: tags: - Connections summary: Change storage settings description: >- Switch between default storage, local storage in one country, and no storage.

A live key on a workspace below Pro gets this on every request, because the live API is a Pro feature. Upgrade in **Billing** to use live keys. Test keys are never limited, on any plan. `code` is always `plan_limit_reached`. Show `message` to the person: it names the plan to move to. Other plan limits use the same code in the console, but the API reports them differently today: a broadcast larger than the month's remaining Live broadcast sends is refused with `422` and the reason in `message`, and connecting a number beyond the plan's number capacity fails validation (`422`) on `phone_number_id`. content: application/json: schema: type: object properties: message: type: string description: >- A sentence you can show to the person.
