Idempotency key used for a different request

The key is already associated with a different request fingerprint.

Code
IDEMPOTENCY_KEY_REUSED
HTTP status
409

What to do now

  1. Reuse the original request and key to recover its result. Use a new key only when you intend a new operation.

Why this happens

  • A previously used key was submitted with changed request values. OTP excludes the code from its fingerprint; changing it does not replace the original OTP.

Before you retry

Resolve the issue first. Do not loop on this error. For an uncertain POST result, keep the original body and idempotency key; use a new key only for an intentional new operation.
