Storage/Request queues/Requests locks

Get and lock request queue head

Changed on

Returns the given number of first requests from the queue and locks them for the given time.

If this endpoint locks the request, no other client or run will be able to get and lock these requests.

The response contains the hadMultipleClients boolean field which indicates that the queue was accessed by more than one client (with unique or empty clientKey).
