## Other responses

- `400`: Invalid request (`invalid_request`, `unsupported_version`).
- `401`: Missing or invalid key (`authentication_required`, `invalid_api_key`).
- `402`: The workspace must add a card before the API can be used (`payment_required`).
- `403`: The key lacks the scope (`insufficient_scope`), the feature is off (`feature_disabled`), or the workspace's plan doesn't include it (`plan_required`, with `required_plan`).
- `404`: No such object in this workspace (`not_found`).
- `409`: Conflicts with the current state (`conflict`, `idempotency_key_in_use`), or the change would leave a live agent with no calendar or live form (`goal_required`).
- `422`: Refused by a rule (`unprocessable`, `idempotency_key_reused`).
- `429`: Rate limited (`rate_limited`) or a monthly allowance used (`quota_exceeded`); see Retry-After.
