    - `name` string, nullable: Full name of the Meow user who acted, as it stood when they acted. `null` when no Meow user acted.
    - `public_id` string, uuid, nullable: Identifier of the user who acted. `null` when no Meow user acted.

## Other responses

- `400`: The request could not be processed.
- `401`: Authentication failed.
- `403`: The API key is not authorized for this operation, or the user of a global API key is an admin or controller without approved KYC. The KYC case returns the message `KYC is required for controllers and admins.` until that user completes KYC in the Meow dashboard.
- `429`: Too many requests.
