Automotion docs

EMAIL_ALREADY_EXISTS

An account with this email address already exists.

HTTP status: 400

What it means

Sign-up was attempted with an email address that already has an Automotion account.

Why it happens

  • An account with this email address already exists (sign-up is one account per email).

How to fix it

  • Sign in with the existing account instead.
  • Use the password-reset flow if you no longer know the password.

Example

Every non-2xx response uses the same envelope; path (when present) is the exact JSON path of the offending field, and requestId identifies the request in support conversations:

response.json
{
  "error": {
    "code": "EMAIL_ALREADY_EXISTS",
    "message": "An account with this email already exists. Sign in instead.",
    "docsUrl": "https://automotion.dev/docs/errors/email_already_exists"
  },
  "requestId": "req_0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef"
}

See the error index for the full catalog and the API overview for envelope semantics.
