# Upload a custom emoji
This endpoint is used to upload a custom emoji for use in the user's
organization. Access to this endpoint depends on the
[organization's configuration](https://zulipchat.com/help/only-allow-admins-to-add-emoji).
`POST {{ api_url }}/v1/realm/emoji/<emoji_name>`
## Usage examples
{start_tabs}
{tab|python}
{generate_code_example(python)|/realm/emoji/<emoji_name>:post|example}
{tab|curl}
```
curl {{ api_url }}/v1/realm/emoji/<emoji_name> \
-F "data=@/path/to/img.png" \
-u USER_EMAIL:API_KEY
```
{end_tabs}
## Arguments
As described above, the image file to upload must be provided in the
request's body.
## Emoji name
The emoji name can only contain letters, numbers, dashes, and spaces.
Upper and lower case letters are treated the same, and underscores (_)
are treated the same as spaces (consistent with how the Zulip UI
handles emoji).
## Maximum file size
The maximum file size for uploads can be configured by the
administrator of the Zulip server by setting `MAX_EMOJI_FILE_SIZE`
in the [server's settings][1]. `MAX_EMOJI_FILE_SIZE` defaults
to 5MB.
