# The restaurant accepted an order

EVENT `order.accepted`

`pickupAt` is the time the restaurant promised, `deliveryAt` its drop-off time (deliveries only), `prepMinutes`
the minutes from acceptance to `pickupAt`. They are present when the restaurant set a time.

## Headers

  rotation; the key is the whole `whsec_…` string). Recomputed at every attempt. Verify against the raw body,
  reject `t` more than 300 s off, compare in constant time.
- `X-Partner-Event-Id` (string, required, pattern: `^evt_`)
  The event's `id`; deduplicate by it.
- `X-Partner-Event-Type` (string, required, `order.accepted` | `order.ready` | `order.completed` | `order.rejected` | `order.cancelled` | `menu.updated` | `store.status_changed` | `connection.revoked`)

## Expected response

### 200 — Stored. Answer `2xx` within 3 s, as soon as the event is stored. Timeouts, network errors, `429` and `5xx` are

retried (`Retry-After` first; else after about 1, 2, 10 min, then every 30 min, for 24 h). Other `4xx` and every
`3xx` are final.
