Accept an invitation

POST
/v1/user/invitations/merchants/{invitationId}/accept

Accept the caller's own pending merchant invitation, matched by their email. Requires an authenticated user token; only the invitee may accept. Activates the caller's merchant membership with the invited role and activates the merchant. Returns 404 when no pending invitation exists for the caller's email.

AuthorizationBearer <token>

Create a client with POST /v1/oauth/clients, then exchange its credentials for an access token. AUTHORIZATION_CODE clients act on behalf of a signed-in user and always use PKCE; CLIENT_CREDENTIALS clients act as themselves. A client may only be granted scopes its creator already holds — read the grantable list from GET /v1/oauth/clients/scopes.
