List alignment category facts

Verified statements about the brand that future Brand Alignment runs grade AI-stated claims against, e.g. “Ships to 12 EU countries” or “Founded in 2016”. A fact with category_id null is brand-wide — it applies to claims in every category, not just one.

Get category ids from List alignment categories for the category_id filter. Create or edit a fact with Create alignment category fact or Update alignment category fact.

Requires the read:alignment scope. Writing facts needs write:alignment.

Response fields

Field	Type	Description
`data[].id`	`uuid`	required. Use it as `fact_id` with Update / Delete alignment category facts
`data[].category_id`	`uuid \| null`	required. `null` means brand-wide — checked against claims in every category
`data[].fact_text`	`string`	required. Up to 1000 characters
`data[].sort_order`	`integer`	required. Display order within its scope (its category, or the brand-wide group)
`data[].created_at`	`timestamptz`	required
`data[].updated_at`	`timestamptz`	required
`request_id`	`string`	required. Also returned as the `x-request-id` header. Quote it when contacting support

Errors

Status	Code	When
400	`invalid_request`	A parameter is unknown or malformed. The message names it
401	`invalid_token`	The key is missing, malformed, or does not exist
401	`token_expired`	The key passed its expiry date
401	`token_revoked`	The key was revoked
404	`not_found`	The brand does not exist, or this key is not allowed to reach it
429	`rate_limited`	Over 300 requests per minute

Notes

category_id filters, it does not merge. Passing category_id returns only facts scoped to that exact category — brand-wide facts (category_id null) are not included alongside them. Omit category_id to see every fact, category-scoped and brand-wide together.

sort_order is per scope, not global. Ordering restarts at 0 within each category and again within the brand-wide group; it is not a single ranking across the whole list.
