Partial success response

When inviting multiple recipients, it's possible for the notification to succeed for some and fail for others. In this case, the service returns a partial success response with an HTTP status code of 207. When partial success is returned, the response for each failed recipient contains an error object with information about what went wrong and how to fix it.

The following example shows the partial response.
