Conflict

The request clashes with the current state of what it changes.

What it means

The request is well formed and allowed, but it cannot happen now, because of how things stand. code says exactly what it clashes with.

Branch on code:

For already_exists or job_name_taken, choose another name, or change the one that exists.
For run_in_progress, wait for the run to finish, then send the request again.
For conflict, read the resource again to see its current state before you retry.

Code	Retryable	When
`conflict`	No	The request clashes with the current state
`already_exists`	No	Something with that identity already exists
`job_name_taken`	No	Scheduler: another job in the project has that name, ignoring case
`run_in_progress`	No	Scheduler: the job already has a run that has not finished
