Updating favicon and logo

Our backend is that powerful that it can handle files. There is however one little caveat, the data needs to be sent as form-data. Practically this means simply a different flag in the curl. And important to know, you can send the other attributes as form-data too. There is an example on the right hand side.

curl -X PATCH 'https://industrial.api.ubidots.com/api/v2.0/organizations/<organization_key>' \ -H 'X-Auth-Token: oaXBo6ODhIjPsusNRPUGIK4d72bc73' \ -F 'favicon=path/logo.png' -F 'logo=@logoname'
