              }
            ]
          }
        ]
      }
    ]

}
```

Schema:

```json
{
  "type": "object",
  "required": [
    "data"
  ],
  "properties": {
    "data": {
      "$ref": "#/components/schemas/Config",
      "description": "The processing instructions, validated against the schema of the project’s build. Shown here: build `0.9.0-alpha1-2026-10-20T14-10Z-3f05aa`; `GET /schema` has any build’s."
    }
  }
}
```

### 401

No token, or an expired or unknown one: `unauthenticated`.

Example:

```json
{
  "message": "Unauthenticated.",
  "code": "unauthenticated"
}
```

Schema:

```json
{
  "$ref": "#/components/schemas/Error"
}
```

### 403

VOD Express is not available to the account: switched off for it (`vod_express_not_enabled`), or the account is restricted — its access revoked, its trial expired or used up (`account_restricted`, with the reason in `message`).

Example:

```json
{
  "message": [
    "VOD Express is not enabled for your account."
  ],
  "code": "vod_express_not_enabled"
}
```

Schema:

```json
{
  "$ref": "#/components/schemas/Error"
}
```

### 404

No such project in your account: `project_not_found`.

Example:

```json
{
  "message": "Project not found.",
  "code": "project_not_found"
}
```

Schema:

```json
{
  "$ref": "#/components/schemas/Error"
}
```

### 429

Rate limited: `too_many_requests`. Wait the seconds `Retry-After` says, then repeat the call.

Example:

```json
{
  "message": [
    "Too Many Attempts."
  ],
  "code": "too_many_requests"
}
```

Schema:

```json
{
  "$ref": "#/components/schemas/Error"
}
```

### Config

A project’s `config`: every field is in the [Config reference](/vod-express/configuration/reference.md), and `GET /schema` answers it as JSON Schema.
