Canonical code or alias per the domain registry; unknown = 400 UNKNOWN_DOMAIN.Show more
Canonical code or alias per the domain registry; unknown = 400 UNKNOWN_DOMAIN. APTSVC (airport services: meet and assist, porter, buggy, wheelchair, concierge bundles) is registered by this release beside FASTTRK. 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. PARK (airport and cruise-port parking; aliases PRK and PARKING; category SUPPORT, money model MERCHANT, artifact CONF_NUMBER — the supplier's gate barcode is the order's BARCODE document — served under the parking service key with base path /v1/parking) has its typed intent and its verb book from v1.55.0. - actionstringOptionalMirrors the verb; optional (server sets from route)

Opt-in enrichment on shopping answers: EMISSIONS | RATINGS | AMENITIES | ROUTE. Absent = the tenant's configured default. Decoration reads cache or the pre-warmed store only and never delays the verb. - session_idstringOptionalYour own id for the user session the call belongs to.

Ask for the supplier's own answer, verbatim, beside what the platform read from it: Offer.upstream on every offer of a search, poll, detail or flight-returns answer, AirReturnOption.upstream on each listed return, RepriceResponse.message.upstream and OrderItem.upstream. Served only where the deployment enables upstream pass-through; elsewhere a true value is 400 VALIDATION details.reason UPSTREAM_PASS_THROUGH_DISABLED, details.field context.includeUpstream, before any supplier call. Absent or false, nothing changes. The block is informational: offerRef, repriceRef and price stay the only handles and the only price of record. - selectionSelectionPreferencesOptional

Each field set here replaces the tenant's and the platform's for this search, within the caller's entitlements and the platform's ceilings, unless the tenant has locked request overrides.

Who a desk or agent books FOR: stamped into the audit actor and the clientReference lineage of the order.Show more
Who a desk or agent books FOR: stamped into the audit actor and the clientReference lineage of the order. Send customerId (a customer or traveller id the tenant knows) or traveler (a free-text identity), or both. Attribution only: it grants nothing, and the credential's own actor is still what authorises the call. Audit mapping: the audit actor.onBehalfOf (a string) is customerId when present, otherwise "traveler:<redacted-hash>" (a stable hash of traveler, never the text).2 child attributes

PERMISSION_DENIED | TAB_DISABLED | OUT_OF_SCOPE | TENANT_MISMATCH, exactly as Forbidden, plus TENANT_SUSPENDED — declared on the verbs that start new business: search and poll, detail, schedules, seatmap, ancillaries, rules, reprice, hold and order create, and on the payments routes (intent, confirm, 3ds-callback, checkout-session). While the caller's tenant is SUSPENDED every such request is refused TENANT_SUSPENDED, except an idempotent replay of an answer completed before the suspension (see hold / createOrder), before the entitlement and permission checks, and it is not retryable: the answer changes only when platform ops reinstates the tenant. The post-booking verbs (cancel-quote, cancel, amend), the order reads, and capture and refund on an existing payment intent (whose 403 is PaymentForbidden) stay up, so no traveller is stranded. On the production deployment the same requests are refused PERMISSION_DENIED with details.reason TENANT_NOT_LIVE while the tenant's production activation has not been approved, whichever credential is presented, console session or API key; use the sandbox deployment until activation. Not retryable; the post-booking verbs stay up. - 404NOT_FOUND — unknown or expired ref (unguessable refs, 15)ApiErrorResponse

SOLD_OUT with details.reason OFFER_UNSELLABLE — a drill-down (detail, rules) of an offer the tenant's pricing rules cannot sell. A drill-down shows one offer, so it cannot drop and count it as search does; it is refused, never answered at the supplier's net. - 429ApiErrorResponse
RATE_LIMITED — the API key or its tenant is over a rate limit; wait for Retry-After, then retry.Show more
RATE_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. - 500INTERNAL — a bug, and traceId is the support handle.ApiErrorResponse
