Create/update payload for an export template. On create, `name`,
`type`, and
`fields` are required. On update, send only the fields you
intend to change.
`fields` keys must match the stored Manage shape for the chosen
`type` — use the
meta endpoints (`/export-templates/types`,
`/export-templates/authoring-guide`,
`/export-templates/placeholders`) to discover the shape and
valid placeholders,
and `POST /export-templates/validate` to dry-run before saving.

Raw template body — see the `fields` description on the
export template schema.
For HTML-mode paged types set `render_mode: "html"` and
supply `page` plus the
body keys for the type's shape (four fragments vs. single
`html`/`css`). For
options mode set `render_mode: "options"` and supply
`contents.sections`.

A PDF/HTML **document export template**

snake_case; `fields` keys mirror the stored Manage shape
so templates round-trip
with the admin UI (`render_mode`, `page`, `headerHtml`,
`html`, etc.).

description: >
Raw template body. Keys match Manage storage and vary
by `type` and render mode:
- `render_mode` — `options` (form-driven) or `html`
(author-supplied markup).
- `page` — `{ size, orientation, highDpi }` for
HTML-mode paged types.
`size` ∈ `Letter`, `Legal`, `A4`, `A5` (plus `2x1` for `packing_slip`);
`orientation` ∈ `Portrait`, `Landscape`.
- **Four-fragment** HTML types (`packing_slip`,
`sales_order`):
`headerHtml`, `itemsHeaderHtml`, `itemRowHtml`, `footerHtml` (plus optional
`sortField` / `sortDirection`).
- **Single-body** HTML types (`work_order`,
`production_run`, `assembly_order`,
`supplier_purchase_order`, `invoice_pdf`): `html` plus optional `css`.
- **Options mode**: `contents.sections` (an array of
section descriptors).
Placeholders use Mustache syntax (`{{orderNumber}}`,
`{{#orderLines}}…{{/orderLines}}`).
Call `GET /export-templates/placeholders?type=` for
the exact catalogue.
example:
render_mode: html
page:
size: A4
orientation: Portrait
highDpi: false
headerHtml: 'Packing Slip #{{orderNumber}}
