Submit Grant Request

Confirm that you have submitted the grant in your system. Calling this endpoint moves the Grant Request's status to `submitted` and emits a `grant_request.updated` webhook event. <Warning> - The Grant Request must be in `pending` status. If the linked [Donor Account](/api/donor-accounts) is not yet `approved`, the Grant Request will be in `awaiting_account_decision` and this request returns status `412 Precondition Failed`. - A Grant Request that is already `submitted` or `rejected` cannot be updated. Subsequent calls return status `409 Conflict`. </Warning>
