Anfragetext

return_numberstring

Return number. Whitespace is ignored and letters are uppercased. Use only letters, numbers, hyphens, and underscores. Auto-generated when omitted on create.

return_timestring | number | string

ISO 8601 timestamp or millisecond epoch.

memostringmax length 2000

statusstring

Return status. Recording stock through the return's transaction endpoints advances the status automatically: confirmed becomes in-progress once any quantity is received, and done once nothing remains. A done return is never reverted by such transaction changes.

order_revisionintegerminimum 0, maximum 9007199254740991

Latest observed source order revision when replacing items.

Replacement return lines. Omit to preserve the current lines.

order_item_idintegerminimum 0, maximum 2147483647erforderlich

200The updated return's id.

idintegerminimum 0, maximum 2147483647erforderlich

Updated return id.

400Request validation failed, core rejected the update, or the team is not in LOCATION mode.

idstringerforderlich

Unique exception id (ex_ followed by 32 lowercase hex chars, no dashes — e.g. ex_8f5c0c8e0e0a4a3c9b3f4f2c4f6c8d2a). Quote this in support tickets so we can find the request in our logs.

typestringerforderlich

Stable, machine-readable error code (RFC 7807-style URI fragment). Branch your error handling on this, not on title.

titlestringerforderlich

Human-readable summary of the error, in English.

correlationIDstringerforderlich

Request correlation id (rq_ followed by 32 lowercase hex chars, no dashes — e.g. rq_01abf3...). Identical to the X-Correlation-Id response header. A client-supplied X-Correlation-Id request header (at most 128 chars of A-Z a-z 0-9 . _ : / = -) is echoed back here and in the response header; a missing or invalid value is silently replaced with a generated rq_… id.

instancestring

Pointer to the specific failing resource (e.g. /items/12345). Path-only, no /v1 version prefix. Absent on unknown-path 404 and unexpected 500 responses.

codestring

Sub-reason code surfaced from upstream BoxHero core (on core-mapped 4xx) or from the gateway itself (e.g. not-available-for-api-token on 403). Use this for fine-grained branching after dispatching on type.

errorsarray of object

Field-level error details. Present on request-validation /errors/invalid-request (400) responses. Absent on malformed-JSON 400, 413 body-too-large, and most errors mapped from BoxHero core (which include it only when core supplies an array; this can include 403). Each entry locates a single failure via JSONPath-like path segments and a human-readable message.

429Rate limit exceeded. Limits are per team and shared by all of the team's API tokens: 5 requests per second and 300 requests per minute. The RateLimit and X-RateLimit-* headers reflect the per-minute window; check them and Retry-After before retrying. This status is also returned when the client IP exceeds 30 failed authentication attempts within 60 seconds, even if the token is valid.
