Setting a default tariff for a channel type

Last updated: 27 October 2026

Use the api/v1/tariffs/set-default method to set a default tariff for a channel type.

Rules for applying the default tariff

• You can set only one default tariff for each channel type.
• When you set a new tariff, the previous tariff automatically loses its default tariff attribute: isDefault changes to false.
• After you set a default tariff, all existing channels of this type for which no tariff is selected automatically become active with the new tariff.
• After a new channel is successfully registered through the API, it receives the default tariff and its status changes to
  Correct
  . edna Pulse sends a webhook about the channel status change with the ACTIVE value.
• Channels for which a tariff is already selected don't change.
• If you haven't set a default tariff for this channel type, select the tariff manually in the edna Pulse account.
