What is a Brand Board?

A Brand Board is a centralized space where you can define and manage your brand's visual identity. Each Brand Board contains a Design Kit that includes your logos, brand colors, and typography choices. Once set up, these assets can be easily applied across various parts of your account for a cohesive brand look.

Key Benefits of Brand Boards
