Tool-node retries are disabled in the example. The client does not automatically retry paid submissions. If a response is lost, check FlashData Jobs before resubmitting. Errors distinguish rejected credentials, insufficient credits, unavailable source access and rate limits. JSON responses are limited to 20 MiB.
