Update tax settings

POST
/settings/tax

Changes the tax settings. Each list you send replaces the saved list. On accounts where Comecero is the seller, rules is ignored because Comecero handles the tax. Settings are kept per mode: a test token works on the test settings, a live token on the live ones. Secret and trusted tokens may call it when their permissions include settings_tax. Limited tokens may not.

Authorization

headerAuthorizationBearer <token>

A secret, trusted or limited token. See Authentication.
