{
    "status": 201,
    "error": null,
    "resource": {
        "type": "network-token",
        "data": {
            "_id": "68195d504cf60a46b1d45ae8",
            "default": true,
            "expire_month": "06",
            "expire_year": "2028",
            "external_id": "ACT26-2uSCuX9ragRImsDw000000000000GB",
            "status": "active",
            "token": "5186151968680096",
            "service_specific_description": null
        }
    }
}

When a 201 is received this means that the Token has been successfully converted to a Network Token.

You can still continue to use the original 'vault_token' value to process transactions. If you have an active subscription with a vault token and convert the token to a Network Token. The subscription will continue to run as configured and will use the associated Network Token when processing the next scheduled payment.
