Generated from the schema

It is the validated equivalent of the project request inbox: it lets a web form, a CRM or an assistant request material for some dates.

It does NOT accept amounts of any kind (no prices, discounts, insurance or deposits): the order is born at zero and the team prices it from the application. Nor does it accept status, specific serialized units, accessories or notes.

Every referenced identifier (customer, items, project) is resolved against the account of the key BEFORE writing anything: a single one that does not belong to the account rejects the whole request with 400 and creates nothing.

Authorizations

Bearer API key with the scope below. orders:write

Headers

Idempotency-Keystring

Unique identifier of the request, chosen by the client (a UUID works). Between 1 and 255 characters: an empty header is rejected with 400 validation_error, because the client would believe itself protected. Repeating the same key with the SAME body within 24 h returns the stored response without executing again, with the Idempotent-Replay: true header. With a DIFFERENT body it returns 422. It is the safe way to retry after a network timeout.

Limits: min length 1, max length 255

Example:"9f1c2f4e-3a5b-4f6d-8e7a-0b1c2d3e4f5a"

If-Matchstring

Optimistic locking: the ETag you read from the resource (or *). If the resource changed since, the write is rejected with 412 precondition_failed before doing anything; read it again and retry. Without the header the write always proceeds.

Example:"\"3sT3d9pBvZq4h2N0w8x1YkLmQ7c\""
