BYOC Edge Provisioning Fails with 400 Bad Request

Ran into a weird issue today with the BYOC Edge provisioning API (/api/v2/organization/byoc/edges). The payload validates perfectly against the OpenAPI spec, yet the server returns a 400 Bad Request with no useful error details in the response body.

The environment is a multi-tenant setup in the UK2 region. We are using the standard client credentials flow for authentication, and the token is valid. The issue seems to occur specifically when the configuration object includes custom media settings for WebRTC.

The documentation suggests that the edge configuration should be a flat JSON object, but our ServiceNow Data Action is serializing it as a nested structure. Could this be causing the server-side parser to reject the payload?

We have tried bypassing the CLI validation and pushing the certificate directly via the Genesys Cloud API to isolate whether the issue is client-side serialization or server-side rejection. The BYOC edge remains in a PENDING state.

Has anyone encountered similar serialization issues with the BYOC API? Any insights on how to debug the specific field causing the rejection would be appreciated. We are currently stuck on this integration step.

Have you tried validating the configuration object against the specific BYOC Edge schema for the UK2 region? The OpenAPI spec is often generic, but regional deployments enforce stricter validation rules for compliance headers. I recently encountered a similar 400 error where the payload was technically valid but missing the mandatory legal_hold_tag field required for audit trails in EU regions. The API response body is notoriously empty for these schema violations, which makes debugging difficult. Check if your configuration includes the necessary chain of custody metadata. If the edge is intended for recording export, ensure the recording_metadata section is present and correctly formatted. Missing these fields triggers a silent rejection at the ingestion layer. Also, verify that the IAM role attached to the BYOC environment has the correct permissions for resource creation. Sometimes the 400 error masks an underlying permission issue if the service account lacks byoc:edge:create scope.

Note: Regional compliance requirements in UK2 are stricter than US-East. Always include the legal_hold_tag in the configuration object to avoid silent failures.
