customer email conflicts with customer of id %s

Common causes

• There were multiple requests to create a customer with the same email.
• A third-party integration you have authorized may be attempting to create a customer that already exists.

Troubleshooting

• Make sure that you don't send multiple requests to create a customer with the same email.
• Get the id of the existing customer from the response and use that for other requests.
