Errors

Some errors might be encountered after an API request is made and a response is returned.

Validation Errors

Validation errors occur when one or more validation rules are not met. For example, not passing a required field in the body of a request causes a 403 error

Status code: 409 - Conflict Error

HTTP

{
    "required field": [
        "error message"
    ]
}

---

Authentication Errors

Authentication errors occur when you fail to authenticate a request or pass the correct authorization token or when you pass in an invalid token. For example, making a request without an authorization token.

Status code: 403 - Forbidden Error

HTTP

{
    "description": "Please provide an auth token as part of the request.",
    "title": "Invalid api key"
}

Another instance of authentication error is making a request with a key that doesn't have permission to perform that request.

Status code: 401 - unauthorized

HTTP

{
	"message" :"You do not have the required permission to access this resource"
}
