Request Quote Discount Approval
POST/api/quotes/:quote/request-approval
Request managerial approval for the quote's current discount level. The quote's totals are recalculated, the effective discount percentage is captured, and a pending approval is created attributed to the authenticated user.
orders:writeGrant this scope to your token under Settings → Developer → Personal Access Tokens.
A quote can only have one pending approval at a time — requesting again while one is pending returns an error. Resolve it with Approve Quote Discount or Reject Quote Discount.
Response fields: approval_id, status (pending), discount_percent (the discount level captured for review).
Authentication: Requires Bearer token.

Unauthenticated — the bearer token is missing, revoked, expired, or malformed. Never retry automatically; fix the credential. See the Errors guide.
Forbidden — the token lacks a required scope, the endpoint is not available to API tokens, or the user behind the token lacks the permission. A human must adjust the token scopes or user permissions; do not retry.
Not found — no record with the given identifier (or the route does not exist). Verify the ID before retrying.
Unprocessable Entity

Rate limited — platform limit is 1,000 requests/min; individual tokens may carry lower limits. Honor the Retry-After header before retrying. See the Rate Limits guide.
