Error handling

Spotnana uses the following standard HTTP response codes to indicate the status of an API request:

  • 2xx Successful – The request was successfully received, understood, and accepted.
  • 4xx Client error – The request contains bad syntax or invalid parameter.
  • 5xx Server error – The server failed to fulfil a request.

Sample error message

Apart from the standard HTTP error codes, the error response contains a errorMessages > errorCode field that gives you additional context about the error.

Here are some sample API error responses:

Sample 1: HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request

    "debugIdentifier": "https://debug.services.spotnana.com/file-search-results/5404d15aa99f5e2d4?q=debugid",
    "errorMessages": [
        {
            "errorCode": "INVALID_EMAIL_DOMAIN"
        }
    ]
}



Sample 2: HTTP/1.1 401 Unauthenticated
