Information on `has_inbox_seat`
As inbox seats are a new feature with our new pricing plans, customers not migrated to our new pricing will have has_inbox_seat set to true.
We only check if the teammate making the API call has seats, not the app itself, nor all admins within the app.
If an admin has_inbox_seats set to false, then certain calls will fail, such as:
- Setting an admin to have away mode and/or to reassign conversations
- Assigning a conversation to an admin or a team
- Adding or removing another customer to a group conversation
If it fails, we let the developer know by returning a 403 Forbidden error, alongside a clarifying error code/message such as the one below.
