Overview#
Our API uses standard HTTP response codes to indicate the success or failure of an API request. When an error occurs, the response body will contain a JSON object structured according to IETF RFC 7807 (Problem Details for HTTP APIs).This standardized format allows you to programmatically handle errors based on stable error codes while providing human-readable details for debugging.HTTP Status Codes#
We use the following HTTP status codes to indicate the general class of the response:| Status Code | Description |
|---|
| 200 OK | The request was successful. |
| 400 Bad Request | The request was invalid (e.g., missing parameters, invalid format). |
| 401 Unauthorized | Authentication failed (e.g., API key is missing or invalid). |
| 403 Forbidden | You do not have permission to access this resource. |
| 422 Unprocessable Entity | The request was well-formed but failed business logic validation (e.g., insufficient funds). |
| 429 Too Many Requests | You have exceeded your rate limit. |
| 500 Internal Server Error | Something went wrong on our end. Please contact support with the logId. |
| 503 Service Unavailable | The service or an upstream dependency is temporarily unavailable. Please retry later. |
