Validate an order's recipient
GET/orders/:orderId/recipient-validation
Checks the order's recipient details — name, company, address and phone — against a fulfillment provider's rules, and returns every problem found. The order is neither sent nor changed, so you can check it at any time, for example after correcting the customer's address. An order that goes to NextSmartShip also carries these problems as recipientFaults while it still owes fulfillment. Only nextsmartship can be checked.

The merchant is entitled but its OMS environment is not provisioned yet. Provisioning has been kicked off (exactly once) and is in progress; retry the request — it succeeds once the environment is ready. Returned only for identity-token (dashboard) requests bound to an active-entitled merchant, not for secret-key API calls; any such endpoint can return it while provisioning is underway.
The request was rejected. type is invalid_request_error; when the failure is a validation failure code is validation_failed and errors lists every problem found, with field-attributable entries prefixed by the field’s path.
No credentials were supplied, or the identity token / secret key is not valid for the target merchant. type is authentication_error.
The credentials are valid but lack the permission this operation requires. type is permission_error.
No resource exists with the requested identifier. type is not_found_error.
Too many requests. The rate limit is applied per client across all operations. type is rate_limit_error.
The request could not be completed because of an unexpected error. type is api_error.
A dependency needed to serve the request is temporarily unavailable — for every operation the auth service that verifies credentials and resolves entitlement, and on the provisioning routes also the ODUS API the OMS reconciles against. type is api_error. Unlike a plain 500 the condition is transient rather than a fault in the request, so it is worth retrying with backoff.
The request exceeded the processing time limit and was abandoned. type is api_error and code is timeout — unlike a plain 500 the request may still have taken effect.
