| Retryable      | No                                                           |

## When this happens

The `Content-Type` does not match the operation, or the body is compressed. `PUT` and `POST` require `application/json`. `PATCH` requires `application/merge-patch+json`. `Content-Encoding` must be absent or `identity`.

## What to do

Set the correct `Content-Type` and send an uncompressed body.
