This page is the resolution target of the RFC 9457 type URI on every sandbox_subject_conflict problem body: https://docs.get-exo.com/errors/sandbox_subject_conflict. HTTP status: 409 Conflict.

Why it happens

The sandbox partition is addressed by a reserved subject id. If that id was provisioned as an ordinary subject, the sandbox cannot claim it without silently colliding with real data.

How to fix it

  • Erase or rename the colliding subject with DELETE /v1/subjects/{subject_id}, then retry.
  • If the colliding subject holds real content, move it to a different id before erasing.
