confirmation_required

A human must confirm this action

What happened

This operation costs money or cannot be undone, so it did not execute. A confirmationUrl is returned instead.

What to do

Hand the confirmationUrl to the account owner; poll the pending action for the outcome.

The response body carries a recovery object with the same guidance in machine-readable form: recovery.action names the call to make next, and recovery.hint is one sentence a model can act on. Not every code carries one — a 401, for instance, has nothing to recover to but a valid token.
