| **Error Message**             | For your security, we've locked your account. Please reset your password to continue.                                                                                                                           |
| **Common Causes**             | When you use an incorrect secret for more than 5 attempts, it can trigger security protocols that may lock your account to prevent unauthorized access.                                                         |
| **Troubleshooting Steps**     | Your account (including your partnerId and secret associated with your integration) is locked due to security reasons as a result of multiple failed attempts. Contact customer support to unlock your account. |
