Submit a Draft for review (Draft → Submitted)

POST 
/api/v1/products/:id/submit

Required scope: dpp:submit. A WRITE (HMAC + Idempotency-Key), bodyless. Runs the publish gate; on failure returns 422 SUBMIT_BLOCKED with the gap list. Can only ever set status to Submitted — never Approved or Published (structural firewall; the human-publish step stays in the UI).

Submitted for review

401

401 — INVALID_SIGNATURE or SIGNING_NOT_CONFIGURED (or bearer auth failure).

403

403 — missing scope (FORBIDDEN_SCOPE) or module (FORBIDDEN_MODULE).

404

404 — not found OR owned by another tenant (NOT_FOUND; IDOR-safe).

422

SUBMIT_BLOCKED — compliance gaps block submission (the response error.missingFields lists them); or SUBMIT_REJECTED — the entity can't be submitted (wrong status, demo product).

429

429 — RATE_LIMITED (per-key limit, reads and writes alike; fails closed, so a limiter outage also returns 429). A limiter-down 429 is deliberately indistinguishable from a quota 429. Carries Retry-After (seconds).
