Errors

forbidden

The credential is good, but its user's role cannot do this.

Status

HTTP 403, title Forbidden. One of the credentials errors. Branch on code, never on the status or the prose.

Common causes

  • A member, rather than an owner or admin, tried to register, rotate, delete or replay a webhook endpoint.

What to do

The credential is good, but its user's role cannot do this: only an organization owner or admin manages webhooks. Ask one of them, or use their key; retrying will not help.

Example

The body arrives as application/problem+json. Most responses add detail about the occurrence, and some add fields of their own.
