info:
  title: parcelLab Create and Fetch Return
  summary: Create a return registration and immediately read it back by external id.
  description: >-
    The canonical create-then-confirm pattern for returns. The workflow opens a
    return registration for an order, captures the server-assigned external id
    and sequence number, and then re-fetches the registration so the caller has
    the authoritative record including any generated return labels and status.
    Every step spells out its request inline so the flow can be read and executed
    without opening the underlying OpenAPI description.
