# Replace a video's chapters

> Replaces the video's entire chapter list. This is a full replace, not a merge: send every chapter you want to keep, including ones already saved, or they are removed. An empty `chapters` array turns chapters off. Recompiles the player.

Requires a token with the `videos:write` scope.
