Common Errors
If there's an error with your API call, tje API will return a HTTP status code along with a message detailing the error.
Code | Description | Solution |
---|---|---|
401 | "Access denied due to invalid subscription key. Make sure you are subscribed to an API you are trying to call and provide the right key." | Ensure that a valid access token is being used in your API call By catching 401 unauthorized exceptions in all your calls you'll provide the coverage you need in your application to handle expired tokens. It's good practice to design and develop your application in anticipation that with any request you could potentially have an invalid access token. |
404 | Page not found | The endpoint or resource your application is trying to reach doesn't exist |
405 | Method Not Allowed. | |
500 | Internal Service Error | There was an application error on our server. Usually your request is valid but needs to be made at a later time. |
