Reference: https://mediakind.ferndocs.com/beam/api/channels/deployment/get-eligibility

## Authentication

- `Authorization` header (bearer token, required) — Bearer authentication of the form `Bearer <token>`, where token is your auth token.

## Response

### 200

Successful Response

- `canRun` (boolean, required)
- `deploymentState` (string, required)
- `resources` (list of EligibilityResource, optional, default: [])

## Types

### EligibilityResource

A single existing resource on the box. type — "service" (comms registry), "feed" or "savedConfiguration" (ce1-controller) id — the resource's id (comms serviceId, or ce1 channel/template id) channel — name of the channels-api channel this is already part of, else None can_upgrade — whether this resource can be upgraded to a channel. None when it is already managed by channels-api (not applicable); otherwise False for now, expanded in later releases as upgrade paths are enabled. reason — explanation of the can_upgrade verdict None fields are omitted from the response (the route uses response_model_exclude_none).

- `type` (string, required)
- `id` (string, required)
- `channel` (string, optional, nullable)
- `canUpgrade` (boolean, optional, nullable)
- `reason` (string, optional, nullable)
