These output settings are included in this configuration. Select another configuration ID to change them. Do not add them to options.

Replace the prompt and set a unique MELDPORT_IDEMPOTENCY_KEY for this operation. The example quotes the request and then creates one paid job. Read the billing rules before accepting variable charges.
