Send a lead to a lead-only supplier: private dining and other enquiries

An enquiry is a lead, not a booking: nothing is priced, held or paid, and no order is created.Show moreAn enquiry is a lead, not a booking: nothing is priced, held or paid, and no order is created. The platform validates the lead the way the supplier would, sends it ONCE and answers the enquiry with its state. SUBMITTED carries the supplier's lead id as supplierReference; UNCONFIRMED means the supplier did not answer, the lead may have reached the venue and is never re-sent (warning <SUPPLIER>_LEAD_UNCONFIRMED). Requires orders:write and the domain tab entitlement (search:dining for FNB). Idempotency-Key is required; a replay answers the stored 201. Personal data in contact travels to the supplier and is never echoed.

FNB (dining: restaurant reservations; aliases REST, DINING, RESTAURANT, RESTAURANTS; category DO, money model FREE, artifact CONF_NUMBER, served under the dining service key with base path /v1/dining) is registered since v1.7.0. GIFT (gift cards; category SUPPORT, money model MERCHANT, artifact VOUCHER, served under the gift-cards service key with base path /v1/gift-cards) is described from v1.31.0: until the backend seam change merges, domain GIFT answers 400 UNKNOWN_DOMAIN. AICONT (the Example Content experience-scraping service's operations; category DO, money model MERCHANT, artifact NONE, served under the aicont service key with base path /v1/aicont; a content supplier) has its typed intent from v1.39.0; it answers only where its supplier set is landed and ACTIVE.

    RATE_LIMITED — the API key or its tenant is over a rate limit; wait for Retry-After, then retry.Show moreRATE_LIMITED — the API key or its tenant is over a rate limit; wait for Retry-After, then retry. Every routed request is counted against two token buckets, the key's and the tenant's (all its keys together): 50 requests a second with a burst of 100 on the standard plan. Every travel verb except polling a search also spends from a supplier budget, per key and per tenant: 10 requests a second with a burst of 20, and a plan may add a daily quota of supplier calls. Answers carry the IETF RateLimit header fields for the tightest bucket consulted (RateLimit-Limit, RateLimit-Remaining, RateLimit-Reset, RateLimit-Policy); a refusal adds Retry-After and details.scope (KEY or TENANT), details.budget (PLATFORM or SUPPLIER), details.reason (RATE or DAILY_QUOTA), details.tier and details.retryAfterMs. A sandbox may run with the limiter off, in which case none of these headers is sent. A search that is still warming is a different answer with a different meaning (keep polling). with the key-velocity check on, also details.reason VELOCITY_LIMIT, a soft breach of the API key's own scope (components/responses/VelocityLimited), nextAction slow_down.
