# Get brand template dataset

Check if a brand template has autofillable fields and what type of information the fields accept.

AVAILABILITY: To use this API, your app must act on behalf of a user that's on a Canva plan with access to brand templates (such as Canva Pro, Canva Teams, or Canva Enterprise).

Gets the dataset definition of a brand template. If the brand
template contains autofill data fields, this API returns an object with the data field
names and the type of data they accept.

<Note>
  To get the dataset definition of a design, use the
  [Get design dataset API](https://www.canva.dev/docs/apps/rest-apis/reference/designs/get-design-dataset/).
</Note>

Available data field types include:

* Images (which you can autofill with an image or a video asset)
* Text
* Charts
* Sheets

You can autofill a brand template using the [Create a design autofill job
API](https://www.canva.dev/docs/apps/rest-apis/reference/autofills/create-design-autofill-job/).
