Headers

Idempotency-Keystring
A fresh unique key for every write (a new UUID, say); reuse it only to retry that write. Keys are remembered for 1 hour: the same key and the same request within that hour returns the first result, with Idempotent-Replayed: true, without running again; the same key with a different method, path or body is refused (422 idempotency_key_reused); a retry while the first is still running gets 409 idempotency_key_in_progress. Keys are per store. Server errors and rate limits are not kept, so their retry runs.

Errors

401

Missing or invalid X-Auth-Token.

409

An earlier request with the same Idempotency-Key is still running. Wait, then resend the same request with the same key.

422

The request failed validation.

429

Rate limited: cost-weighted per token (read 1, write 2; 360 points / 60s). Check Retry-After.

Every error has the same shape: see Errors.
