concessions.create_offer
What it does
Create a concession offer: a discount the business gives customers off what their agreement would otherwise charge, with its purpose (acquisition, retention, service or research) and attribution (a campaign name, a partner party). Assign it to emails with concessions.assign; a contract takes it with contracts.create’s concession. Posts nothing.
Before you send it
An authorized OAuth connection may call it, including a headless client. Effective membership, application grant and token permissions still apply. Describe concessions.create_offer through GET /v1/catalog/commands/{name} before acting.
This command does not accept source_document_id in its envelope. Any input evidence requirements remain as documented below.
Inputs
Put these fields inside the envelope’s input object. The outer envelope names the command, a stable idempotency_key and effective_at; request and recovery rules explain those separately. Use exact minor-unit integer strings for monetary fields. Take existing IDs from prior reads or command results; choose a new identity only where the command asks for one.
Required means required within its containing object; an optional parent can be omitted.

After acceptance
When the command emits events, its documented effects and receipt are recorded in the command transaction. The response returns commandId, replayed, the command-specific result below and emitted events with their IDs and CIDs. A command is not automatically a cash movement or revenue recognition: use the behavior above to determine what this command records.
Inspect result and the affected records or reports before continuing. Save returned identifiers for later calls. Fetch GET /v1/commands/{id} with commandId to recover the accepted receipt; retry the same intent with the same idempotency key if the response was lost. Some commands can succeed with events: [] and return a transient result and commandId without persisting a receipt. A lookup of that ID can return null; retain the returned result and verify the affected record. Retrying can re-evaluate the current state rather than replay a stored result. A domain no_change is a separate success outcome with no persisted receipt.
