`POST /api/triggers/process-date-distance`

Interactive requests require current membership; supplied workspace selectors must agree. Referenced triggers, flows and contacts must belong to that workspace; selected contacts also require existing contact visibility. Service calls require X-Trigger-Secret and X-Workspace-Id; source labels confer no authority. Both caller types pass workspace and resource checks; supplied appointments must belong to the selected contact. Any supplied resource ID must be a hyphenated UUID string on the signed-in path.

## Authentication

Requires one of the following:

- `BearerAuth`, http, header `Authorization`, format `JWT`
- `BackendTriggerAuth`, apiKey, in header, header `X-Trigger-Secret`

## Header parameters

- `X-Workspace-Id` (`post/api/triggers/process-date-distance.header.X-Workspace-Id`; string, optional) — Selected workspace; any supplied query/body selector must match it.
