Transfer compliance

Record transfer decision

/api/v2/transfer-compliance/transfers/{transfer_uuid}/decisions

AUTHENTICATIONBearer token · compliance:reviewAUTHORITATIVE OWNERtransfer-compliance-serviceCONTRACT AUTHORITYGenerated Rust OpenAPISTATUSSource ready · production listed

PURPOSE + BUSINESS CONTEXT

Record an authorized compliance decision for a held transfer.

WHEN THIS CALL IS USEFUL

Use only from SCREENING within a separately authorized reviewer or evaluator workflow after screening systems have retained the underlying evidence elsewhere.

OUTCOME · Create or advance

What changes

Derives CLEAR, REVIEW, or REJECT from public-safe outcomes and counterparty fitness; signs and retains the decision and event commitments; and may advance to REVIEW or REJECTED. It never stores raw screening matches.

WHY IT MATTERS

Gives people and agents a contract-backed way to advance record transfer decision.
Supports policy-compliant transfer coordination while minimizing personal data and separating compliance evidence from value movement.

ISOLATION + AUTHORITY

Owner, workspace, counterparty, VASP, credential issuer, wallet controller, transfer, reviewer, disclosure recipient, purpose, and retention boundaries remain distinct. A credential, preparation, decision, manifest, envelope, disclosure, or Explorer record neither moves value nor substitutes for wallet authorization, sanctions policy, rail admission, settlement, or finality.

BEFORE YOU CALL

Authenticate at the documented boundary: bearer+scope.
Supply the required transfer_uuid (path), screening_commitment (body) exactly as defined by the live contract.
Use one Idempotency-Key only for retries of the same byte-equivalent logical mutation.
Resolve the transfer parties, network, policy jurisdiction, required credential and proof classes, disclosure purpose, recipient, and retention basis.

WHAT TO DO NEXT

Re-read record transfer decision using the canonical identifier returned by this operation.
Reconcile an ambiguous response with the same idempotency key before attempting another mutation.
Re-read the transfer and credential state, verify purpose and recipient binding, and disclose only the fields required by the current policy stage.

AGENT GUIDANCE

Use record transfer decision only for the purpose and lifecycle stage described by this operation; do not treat it as authority for an adjacent action.
Supply the required transfer_uuid (path), screening_commitment (body) exactly as defined by the live contract.
Keep counterparty registration, credential validity, wallet-control proof, transfer intent, data preparation, review decision, disclosure authorization, delivery, value movement, and settlement as separate facts.
After a timeout or conflict, read authoritative state before deciding whether an equivalent retry is safe.

MACHINE CONTRACT

INTEGRATION DECISION

CALLER ACTION: Accept the returned representation or receipt, then re-read record transfer decision using the canonical identifier returned by this operation.
RETRY SAFETY: Do not repeat a successful mutation merely to confirm it. For one logical mutation, retain the same Idempotency-Key and byte-equivalent request. Never reuse that key for changed instructions.
STATE RECONCILIATION: Persist returned identifiers, versions, commitments, and receipts. Refresh the policy version, subject and asset bindings, credential or attestation status, evidence commitment, decision, and revocation state.

404The transfer does not exist or is not visible to the authenticated owner.Resource not visible · JSON RESPONSE+

{
  "code": "transfer_not_found",
  "message": "The transfer does not exist or is not visible to the authenticated owner."
}

INTEGRATION DECISIONtransfer_not_found

CALLER ACTION: Verify the canonical identifier and authenticated owner boundary. A 404 may intentionally conceal a resource outside the caller's authority.
RETRY SAFETY: Do not retry the unchanged identifier repeatedly. Refresh the relevant collection or lookup before choosing another identifier.
STATE RECONCILIATION: Refresh the policy version, subject and asset bindings, credential or attestation status, evidence commitment, decision, and revocation state.
ESCALATE WHEN: Escalate when minimized compliance evidence, issuer authority, policy version, jurisdiction, or decision lineage cannot be verified.

400The JSON body or required signed headers are malformed.Request must change · JSON RESPONSE+

{
  "code": "invalid_json",
  "message": "The JSON body or required signed headers are malformed."
}

INTEGRATION DECISIONinvalid_json

CALLER ACTION: Rebuild the request from the live OpenAPI operation and correct the rejected method, media type, header, parameter, or body field.
RETRY SAFETY: Do not retry the same invalid request. For one logical mutation, retain the same Idempotency-Key and byte-equivalent request. Never reuse that key for changed instructions.
STATE RECONCILIATION: Compare the submitted values with the documented constraints before another call. Refresh the policy version, subject and asset bindings, credential or attestation status, evidence commitment, decision, and revocation state.
ESCALATE WHEN: Escalate when minimized compliance evidence, issuer authority, policy version, jurisdiction, or decision lineage cannot be verified.

401The bearer credential or RFC 9421 request signature is missing, expired, replayed, or invalid.Authentication required · JSON RESPONSE+

{
  "code": "invalid_credentials",
  "message": "The bearer credential or RFC 9421 request signature is missing, expired, replayed, or invalid."
}

INTEGRATION DECISIONinvalid_credentials

CALLER ACTION: Discard the rejected credential, complete the documented authentication or reassertion flow, and rebuild any request signature with fresh timestamps and nonces.
RETRY SAFETY: Retry only with a newly valid credential and fresh replay-protection values. For one logical mutation, retain the same Idempotency-Key and byte-equivalent request. Never reuse that key for changed instructions.
STATE RECONCILIATION: Assume the outcome is unknown only when the connection failed after transmission; otherwise authentication failed before domain work. Refresh the policy version, subject and asset bindings, credential or attestation status, evidence commitment, decision, and revocation state.
ESCALATE WHEN: Escalate when minimized compliance evidence, issuer authority, policy version, jurisdiction, or decision lineage cannot be verified.

403The credential lacks the required compliance:write or compliance:review scope.Authority or policy denied · JSON RESPONSE+

{
  "code": "insufficient_scope",
  "message": "The credential lacks the required compliance:write or compliance:review scope."
}

INTEGRATION DECISIONinsufficient_scope

CALLER ACTION: Verify the exact scope, tenant or workspace membership, owner boundary, step-up purpose, feature policy, and resource eligibility. Never broaden authority automatically.
RETRY SAFETY: Do not retry until the missing authority or policy condition has been deliberately resolved with least privilege.
STATE RECONCILIATION: Confirm the caller and resource resolve to the same authority boundary for transfer-policy definitions, credentials, attestations, reviews, commitments, decisions, and revocations.
ESCALATE WHEN: Escalate when minimized compliance evidence, issuer authority, policy version, jurisdiction, or decision lineage cannot be verified.

409The Idempotency-Key conflicts with another request or the requested lifecycle transition is forbidden.State reconciliation required · JSON RESPONSE+

{
  "code": "transfer_compliance_conflict",
  "message": "The Idempotency-Key conflicts with another request or the requested lifecycle transition is forbidden."
}

INTEGRATION DECISIONtransfer_compliance_conflict

CALLER ACTION: Stop the mutation sequence and fetch the latest authoritative resource, lifecycle state, version, ETag, reservation, or existing idempotency result.
RETRY SAFETY: Retry only after reconciling the conflict. For one logical mutation, retain the same Idempotency-Key and byte-equivalent request. Never reuse that key for changed instructions.
STATE RECONCILIATION: Refresh the policy version, subject and asset bindings, credential or attestation status, evidence commitment, decision, and revocation state.
ESCALATE WHEN: Escalate when minimized compliance evidence, issuer authority, policy version, jurisdiction, or decision lineage cannot be verified.

422An identifier, field, commitment, public key, evidence object, or Idempotency-Key is outside the documented contract.Request must change · JSON RESPONSE+

{
  "code": "invalid_transfer_compliance_command",
  "message": "An identifier, field, commitment, public key, evidence object, or Idempotency-Key is outside the documented contract."
}

INTEGRATION DECISIONinvalid_transfer_compliance_command

CALLER ACTION: Rebuild the request from the live OpenAPI operation and correct the rejected method, media type, header, parameter, or body field.
RETRY SAFETY: Do not retry the same invalid request. For one logical mutation, retain the same Idempotency-Key and byte-equivalent request. Never reuse that key for changed instructions.
STATE RECONCILIATION: Compare the submitted values with the documented constraints before another call. Refresh the policy version, subject and asset bindings, credential or attestation status, evidence commitment, decision, and revocation state.
ESCALATE WHEN: Escalate when minimized compliance evidence, issuer authority, policy version, jurisdiction, or decision lineage cannot be verified.

503The authoritative Core transfer-compliance command boundary is unavailable.Dependency unavailable or outcome uncertain · JSON RESPONSE+

{
  "code": "transfer_compliance_unavailable",
  "message": "The authoritative Core transfer-compliance command boundary is unavailable."
}

INTEGRATION DECISIONtransfer_compliance_unavailable

CALLER ACTION: Preserve the exact request and treat the outcome as uncertain until authoritative state proves whether it committed.
RETRY SAFETY: Reconcile before retrying. For one logical mutation, retain the same Idempotency-Key and byte-equivalent request. Never reuse that key for changed instructions. Use bounded backoff with jitter.
STATE RECONCILIATION: Refresh the policy version, subject and asset bindings, credential or attestation status, evidence commitment, decision, and revocation state.
ESCALATE WHEN: Escalate when minimized compliance evidence, issuer authority, policy version, jurisdiction, or decision lineage cannot be verified.

OPERATIONAL NOTES

Security and lifecycle guarantees

This is a reviewer-only policy evaluation. The authenticated reviewer profile is derived from the bearer and signed into the Core command; caller-supplied actor identity is not accepted.
CLEAR inputs may produce APPROVED, while uncertainty may produce REVIEW_REQUIRED and a REVIEW state. Use the returned decision, risk level, reason codes, commitments, and state; never infer the outcome locally.
APPROVED is compliance evidence only. It grants no wallet, signing, matching, publisher, ingress, broadcast, settlement, market-status, traffic, or value-movement authority.
