  title: Flutterwave Charge Then Dispute Chargeback
  summary: Confirm a charge succeeded, raise a chargeback against it, and submit evidence to contest it.
  description: >-
    A dispute-management flow that retrieves a charge, confirms it succeeded,
    creates a chargeback record against that charge, and then updates the
    chargeback with evidence and a resolution. The flow branches on the
    chargeback status returned by the update so the caller can tell whether the
    dispute is still pending, contested, won, or lost. Every step spells out its
    request inline so the flow can be read and executed without opening the
    underlying OpenAPI description.
