Refused 400 policy

No SOM 1.0 schema for this message_type, on a bus that refuses those.

OutcomeRefused, 400
Sourcepolicy: This bus's operational rules (identity, grants, size, idempotency, story ownership). Not a verdict of the SOM standard.

What it means ​

A bus can be configured to refuse message types that SOM 1.0 has no schema for. The hosted environments accept them instead, with payload.unvalidated.

How to fix it ​

Use a SOM 1.0 message type, or publish to an environment that accepts unknown types.


Branch on the rule id, never on the violation's message text. All rules: rule catalogue.
