What to do
One empresa per RUT per account PER MODE (#450): the sandbox copy and the live copy of the same RUT coexist, so switching Facturia-Mode is not what this is about. Read the existing one instead of creating it — error.existing_id names it.
Retrying the same request will fail the same way. Change the request, not the frequency.
The envelope
{
"error": {
"type": "conflict_error",
"code": "empresa_exists",
"message": "…",
"hint": "One empresa per RUT per account PER MODE (#450): the sandbox copy and the live copy of the same RUT coexist, so switching `Facturia-Mode` is not what this is about. Read the existing one instead of creating it — `error.existing_id` names it.",
"retriable": false,
"doc_url": "https://docs.facturia.cl/errors/empresa_exists",
"request_id": "req_01K2R7Q9M4T2VB"
}
}Program against code, never against message — the prose can be rewritten, the code cannot (§5.8).
hint and retriable arrive in the response with these exact values: they are a function of code and come from the same dictionary GET /v1/error_codes serves, so the envelope and the dictionary cannot disagree. Both are English on the wire by design — one registry, one language. More in The error envelope.
