Change the favicon of the Sphinx Read The Docs theme?

Question

I'm already using a custom css to override some of the styles of the theme using

def setup(app):     app.add_css_file('custom.css') 

This works fine. What other app. functions are available? I can't find any documentation.

I'm looking for the function to override the favicon.

Thanks to @StevePiercy I found this documentation: https://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/master/usage/configuration.html#confval-html_favicon

conf.py

html_favicon = 'favicon.ico' 

I put favicon.ico in my source folder, next to my .rst-files and it is working as expected: https://global-coffee-data-standard.readthedocs.io/en/latest/index.html
