EDIT: Just in case it wasn’t clear, the guide and the information below are exclusive to 1.8 API, I don’t think you can do any of those in 1.7.

API Introduction with Postman

Now that you have your widgetId, you can use PUT playlist/widget/:widgetId call to change the text it will be like this:

The colour and font size are obviously just an example.

Hope that will help you.
