Errors

Occasionally you might encounter errors when accessing the REST API. There are four possible types:

Error Code

Error Type

400 Bad Request

Invalid request, e.g. using an unsupported HTTP method

401 Unauthorized

Authentication or permission error, e.g. incorrect API-KEY

404 Not Found

Requests to resources that don't exist or are missing

500 Internal Server Error

Server error

Kitegateway REST API error example:

{
  "code": "kitegateway_rest_term_invalid",
  "status": "indicate if request was successfull",
  "message": "Resource doesn't exist.",
  "data": {
    "...": ...
  }
}

Errors return both an appropriate HTTP status code and response object which contains a code, message, status and data attribute.
