product * object

A product needed.

Not null if user requires to buy a specific product (permission or limitation) in order to access a feature.

product.requirement * string

Whether the user requested a features s/he doesn't have access to, or the user needs greater limits. Possible values: permission, limitation

Sample: "permission"
product.permission * object

The required permission.

You will need to know which permission is needed in order to fill up search filters in the shop.

product.permission.description * string

A human-understandable name for the permission.
product.permission.name string

A technical permission name (ex: ORGANISATION_UPDATE_SETTINGS).

Possible values depend on the context, check the domain's metadata endpoint.

Sample: "X_SOURCE_FORMAT_XML"
product.limitation_type * string

The limitation that needs to be increased (ex: number of columns).
product.limitation_needed_value * integer

The needed resource quantity (if receiver uses 9 columns in a template, this value is 9).

  • the user is a sender
template_handle * string

Handle of the template currently in context, if any.

Many endpoints (and frontend components) require a template_handle. It is exposed here so consumers — most notably the AI agent — can reuse it instead of having to ask the user for it again.

Sample: "new-hires"
source_id * string

UUID of the source currently in context, if any.

Many endpoints (and frontend components) require a source_id (the source UUID, not its database id). It is exposed here so consumers — most notably the AI agent — can reuse it instead of having to ask the user for it again.

Sample: "9e7060d4-9314-4783-883a-8702471ccd39"
debug array

Debug information.

Contains logs about business logic explaining state of the response payload.

Provided in development & admin modes only.

Response 409 Payload contains invalid values.
ResponseError Violations Violation

A violation happens when a property value does not respect the expected constraints.

If a user is making a mistake in a form and frontend is not able to detect it (because of the constraint being tied to some business logic for example), the API will return the invalid properties with the right error messages.
