name
(Required, string) The display name for the space.
description
(Optional, string) The description for the space.
disabledFeatures
(Optional, string array) The list of disabled features for the space. To get a list of available feature IDs, use the Features API.
initials
(Optional, string) The initials shown in the space avatar. By default, the initials are automatically generated from the space name. Initials must be 1 or 2 characters.
color
(Optional, string) The hexadecimal color code used in the space avatar. By default, the color is automatically generated from the space name.
imageUrl
(Optional, string) The data-URL encoded image to display in the space avatar.
