The resource is in a state that conflicts with the requested operation. This is an HTTP 409 error. Common causes include editing or reacting to a message that has been deleted, or mutating a chat that is in a transitional state.

## Troubleshooting

- Refresh the resource before retrying (e.g., re-fetch the chat or message)
- If you are racing a delete or status change, wait for the relevant webhook before retrying
