Solutions

1. Check Flipper Cloud status and your token; a non-2xx response usually means auth failure or a service issue
2. Retry the submission; transient 5xx responses are handled by the backoff policy automatically
3. Verify the configured Cloud URL points to the correct environment and uses https
