What in the order book needs a person today — the home dashboard's fulfilment summary

GET /orders/attention

unfulfilled counts orders placed but not fully shipped (open, awaiting-stock, partially-shipped; drafts and cancellations are not work), awaitingStock the ones among them waiting on stock, and shipments their parcels by stage: pending (to pick), picked (to pack), packed (to ship). awaitingPayment is the prepaid orders holding a packed parcel until the balance is paid, and refundsOwed the orders whose customer has paid more than the order now totals (an edit took value off a paid order) — each with how many, the sum per currency (never across currencies), and the five longest waiting. Read from the order projection as it stands; read-only.

The panel writes this call in other languages. It does not send it: Manifold's APIs do not take calls from a web page on another site, so run the call from your own code or terminal. The whole API as OpenAPI: fulfillment-manager.openapi.json. Base URL https://fulfillment.getmanifold.io.

Errors

Every refusal is a status and a JSON body whose _tag names it. A refused call changes nothing.

`401`

Refusal	What it means	What to do
`Unauthorized` reason	The token is missing, expired or not one Manifold issued.	Get a fresh token and send the call again.
`TokenAlreadyUsed` tokenId	A single-use app token was already spent.	Mint a new token for this call.

`402`

Refusal	What it means	What to do
`SubscriptionRequired` status	The organization's subscription has lapsed, so writes are refused.	An owner settles billing. Reads still work meanwhile.

`403`

Refusal	What it means	What to do
`TenantRequired` userId	The token names no organization.	Choose the organization, then get a new token.
`ScopeRequired` required	The token's roles do not grant the scope this call needs.	Ask an owner or admin for a role that grants it.

`409`

Refusal	What it means	What to do
`MirroredFromSource` source	This area is fed by your source system until the organization goes live.	Make the change in the source system, or go live first.

`503`

Refusal	What it means	What to do
`RequestLogUnavailable` tokenId, reason	The service could not record the request, so it did nothing.	Try again shortly.
