bot_check_failed

Error codeView as Markdown

The bot check failed. The form’s automated-sign-up check did not pass. This usually means the page was open for a long time or a browser extension filled in a hidden field.

  • HTTP status: 422 Unprocessable Content
  • CLI exit code: 2 (the request or file is not valid)
  • Retry: not as it is; the same request will fail the same way until the cause is fixed

Reload the page and submit again.

  1. Reload the page and submit the form again.
