Headers

ParseRail-Dry-Run'1' | 'true'

Send 1 to dry-run the call. ParseRail runs auth, the throttle, body validation and the balance precheck. It returns 200 with the cost and the status a live call would get. No model runs and nothing is charged, so a key with a zero balance works. Dry runs count against the per-key rate limit.
