RFIs
Respond to an RFI
Submits a response to the RFI’s current round. While the RFI is responded, a further response adds information to the same round. submittedBy.email is required on this surface (an API key has no user identity). Replaying the same Idempotency-Key returns the original response regardless of payload; a resolved or cancelled RFI 409s. A document that already belongs to another customer of your organization is refused with 400 VALIDATION_ERROR, and the whole response is refused: it is not recorded and nothing is attached. Send it again without that document, and upload the file again for this customer.
