> Tip: > You can reset styles to their defaults by writing parent fields to `null` with the GraphQL Admin API. Refer to examples of resetting [some](/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/mutations/checkoutBrandingUpsert#examples-Reset_color_schemes_to_the_defaults) and [all](/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/mutations/checkoutBrandingUpsert#examples-Reset_all_styling_to_defaults) values to the defaults. ## What you'll learn In this tutorial, you'll learn how to do the following tasks: - Upload an image for the favicon that displays at checkout - Retrieve a list of your store's checkout profile IDs - Apply the favicon and view it in checkout ## Requirements - The store that you're modifying must be on a [Shopify Plus plan](https://help.shopify.com/manual/intro-to-shopify/pricing-plans/plans-features/shopify-plan). - You've created a new [development store](/docs/api/development-stores#create-a-development-store-to-test-your-app) with the [Checkout and Customer Accounts Extensibility developer preview enabled](/docs/api/developer-previews#enable-a-developer-preview). - You can make [authenticated requests](/docs/api/admin-graphql#authentication) to the GraphQL Admin API. - You've either [installed the GraphiQL app](https://shopify-graphiql-app.shopifycloud.com/login) on your store or [created an app](/docs/apps/build/scaffold-app), with the `read_checkout_branding_settings` and `write_checkout_branding_settings` [access scopes](/docs/api/usage/access-scopes). - You're using API version `2023-10` or higher. - You're familiar with the [GraphQL Admin API's branding types](/docs/apps/build/checkout/styling#data-structures). ## Step 1: Upload the icon Customizing the checkout favicon requires you to first upload the icon [to Shopify as a stagedUpload](/docs/apps/build/online-store/product-media#step-1-upload-media-to-shopify) or your own hosting. ## Step 2: Create the file asset Make a request to the GraphQL Admin API's [`fileCreate`](/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/mutations/fileCreate) mutation, passing an external URL or a [staged upload URL](https://shopify.dev/api/admin-graphql/latest/mutations/stageduploadscreate) as the `originalSource`. You'll use the `id` value when you add the image as the favicon.

## Step 3: Retrieve the store's published checkout profile ID Checkout styling properties apply to a [checkout profile ID](/docs/apps/build/checkout/styling#checkout-profile). In this step, you'll retrieve the checkout profile to which you'll apply favicon changes. 1. Query [`checkoutProfiles`](/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/queries/checkoutProfiles) to retrieve a list of checkout profile IDs. The `is_published` parameter indicates which checkout profile is currently applied to your store's live checkout.

2. Make note of your corresponding ID from the list. You'll supply the ID in subsequent mutations. ## Step 4: Set the favicon image Call the [`checkoutBrandingUpsert`](/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/mutations/checkoutBrandingUpsert) mutation, passing the `mediaImageId`. This is the `id` value that the [`fileCreate` mutation returned](#step-2-create-the-file-asset).

## Step 5: View the favicon in checkout You can view the favicon in its draft and published state. You might need to refresh the page to see changes. 1. In the Shopify admin, click **Settings**. 1. Click **Checkout**. 1. In the **Checkout** page, click **...**. 1. Select one of the following: - If your checkout profile is live, select **View**. - If your checkout profile is in draft, select **Preview**. ## Next steps - Explore the [GraphQL Admin API](/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/mutations/checkoutBrandingUpsert) to learn more about customizing checkout's favicon.
