Error AtlasError Documentation and ResolutionObserved message
423 Locked
Why it happens
- The request could not be fulfilled because of client-side syntax, state, authorization, or precondition issues.
- Headers, payload shape, request metadata, or client expectations do not match what the server requires.
- An application, proxy, or security layer rejected the request before normal processing could complete.
How to fix it
- Inspect the exact request URL, headers, body, and protocol details being sent.
- Review server expectations for authentication, validation, conditional headers, or resource state.
- Check proxies, API gateways, and middleware that might reject the request before it reaches the application.
