Mechanisms¶
- Idempotency Keys
- Its strength is enormous leverage for a tiny artifact: a single stable token makes retries and network uncertainty safe, which is why "create"-style operations that are not naturally idempotent lean on it.
This sourceInternet-Draft draft-ietf-httpapi-idempotency-key-header-07. Internet Engineering Task Force (2025). Uses a stable idempotency key to make uncertain retries of non-idempotent create-style requests safe.

Verification¶
Does it exist? Not checked yet. This entry carries no identifier to resolve. It was extracted from the citation as written in the article, normalized, and deduplicated against the rest of the registry.
Does it back the claim? Not recorded. The single citation of this work carries no recorded support check.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
