# Create Brand Kit

> Creates a brand kit by importing brand assets from a public website, including logos, colors and font files found on the site. By calling this endpoint you confirm you have the rights and licenses necessary to upload, store and use those assets in HeyGen.

The kit is assembled in the background: the returned brand_kit_id is usable immediately, but poll GET /v3/brand-kits/{brand_kit_id} every 2 to 5 seconds until its status is 'completed' before relying on its colors, logos or fonts. A website import usually settles in under two minutes.

Send an Idempotency-Key header to make retries safe: without one, a retried request starts a second import of the same site.
