## Other responses

- `400`: Invalid request, an over-cap limit, a malformed cursor, an unknown status/sort_by value, or another validation error.
- `401`: LINKEDIN_AUTH_FAILED, missing or invalid API key, or the LinkedIn account is disconnected.
- `403`: Forbidden. Either NO_ACTIVE_SEAT (the account is not attached to an active seat), or LINKEDIN_FEATURE_NOT_SUBSCRIBED (the connected LinkedIn account lacks the Recruiter subscription; activate it on LinkedIn, reconnecting will not help). The code field distinguishes the two.
- `404`: Not found. RESOURCE_NOT_FOUND, the project_id does not exist or is not visible to this account. ACCOUNT_NOT_FOUND, the account_id does not exist or does not belong to this tenant. An id whose connection was replaced or removed also stops resolving here, and it is already absent from the list, so re-read `GET /v1/accounts` for the current id.
- `413`: Payload too large, the request body exceeds the size limit.
- `422`: Unprocessable entity, the account or project state is invalid for this operation.
- `429`: RATE_LIMIT_ACCOUNT, too many requests. Retry with exponential backoff.
- `500`: Internal server error.
- `502`: PLATFORM_ERROR. A temporary error occurred. Typically temporary.
- `503`: Service unavailable, the platform service is temporarily down.
- `504`: Gateway timeout, the request timed out.
