Errors

Status	Cause
400	The request was refused (`type: invalid_request_error`): a required parameter is missing (`parameter_missing`), one failed validation (`parameter_invalid`) or is not one the operation takes (`parameter_unknown`), and `param` names it.
401	No credential, or one that does not authenticate.
402	The account is suspended (`tenant_suspended`), or the payment provider refused a charge or refund the call made (`type: payment_error`, `code: payment_refused`).
403	Authenticated, but not allowed: missing scope (`insufficient_scope`), a key of the wrong mode (`mode_mismatch`), or a refused origin. Needs the `test_clocks:write` scope.
404	No such object in this account and mode.
409	Conflicts with the object's current state (`state_conflict`, or a more specific code), or an operation still in flight (`operation_pending`).
413	The request body is larger than the API accepts.
429	Rate limited. `Retry-After` says when to try again.
500	Something failed on BillKit's side (`type: api_error`). Retry with the same `Idempotency-Key`.
502	The payment provider failed or did not answer.
503	Temporarily unable to serve. `reason` says whether the request was attempted.
