Currently, creating a check via API works in two steps:

create check
associate it with the channels

If any of the channel identifiers in payload JSON is invalid, step 2 fails and client receives 400 Bad Request response, but step 1 still goes through.

This should be an atomic operation: either both steps succeed, or the check doesn't get created.
