Seção intitulada “Autorização”Cabeçalho de autenticação Bearer no formato Bearer <token>, em que <token> é o seu token de API.
Parâmetros de caminho
Seção intitulada “Parâmetros de caminho”Return number. Whitespace is ignored and letters are uppercased. Use only letters, numbers, hyphens, and underscores.
Corpo da requisição
Seção intitulada “Corpo da requisição”Return number. Whitespace is ignored and letters are uppercased. Use only letters, numbers, hyphens, and underscores. Auto-generated when omitted on create.
ISO 8601 timestamp or millisecond epoch.
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.

Latest observed source order revision when replacing items.
Replacement return lines. Omit to preserve the current lines.

Source sales order line id. Identifies the line being returned — return lines are matched to source lines by this id (there is no separate return line id to send).
Quantity. May include up to four decimal places in core data.
Latest observed return revision. Omit to use the current revision.
Respostas
Seção intitulada “Respostas”200The updated return's id.
Updated return id.
400Request validation failed, core rejected the update, or the team is not in LOCATION mode.
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.
Stable, machine-readable error code (RFC 7807-style URI fragment). Branch your error handling on this, not on title.

Human-readable summary of the error, in English.
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.
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.
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.
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.
