# Set the composer draft message

`PUT https://api.gleap.io/v3/tickets/{ticketId}/draft-message`

Stage a drafted reply in the ticket's dashboard composer. `content` is either a Markdown string (converted server-side to the composer's rich-text format) or a TipTap doc. The draft appears instantly in the composer of everyone viewing the ticket; nothing is sent to the customer. It replaces any previous draft and is cleared automatically when a reply is sent or the draft is dismissed in the composer.

## Authorization

- `Authorization` (header, required): `Bearer <token>`

## Path parameters

- `ticketId` (string, required)

## Headers

- `project` (string, required)

## Request body (`application/json`, required)

- `content` (any, required): The draft reply — a Markdown string or a TipTap doc.
