Deal Enquiries

Raise an enquiry on a deal

POST/deals/{deal_id}/enquiries

Raises an enquiry as the token's acting user and returns it, open, with a Location. message is required, up to 5000 characters, and sanitised as HTML; phone_number is up to 50. A user_id in the body returns 422 missing. Emits deal_enquiry.created, sends in-app notifications and an email to the deal's managers, and queues the platform's enquiry event, all after commit. DELETE /deals/{deal_id}/enquiries/{id} undoes it.

Path parameters

  • deal_idstring (uuid)Required#

    The deal's id, a uuid. An unknown deal, or one the token can't see, returns 404.

Query parameters

  • dry_runboolean#

    Validate and run the call without committing it, returning what the real call would return with meta.dry_run set.

Headers

  • Idempotency-Keystring#

    Makes a retry safe. Send a new UUID for each new request and reuse it only to retry that request; the first response is replayed for 24 hours.
