← Error reference

pdf_binding_missing

HTTP status: 503

Retryable: Yes — the request did not change server state.

The PDF report service is temporarily unavailable.

When it fires

The report endpoint could not reach the PDF render service binding at request time — a misconfigured or mid-rollout deployment. We fail closed rather than return a partial document.

How to handle it

Retry shortly. Persistent occurrences are an internal incident — contact support with the `request_id` rather than masking the response.
