Errors
OCTO will respond to every request with either a
200 OK if everything went ok or 400 Bad Request if it didn't. In the case of the 400 Bad Request the response body will look like this:{
"error": "INVALID_PRODUCT_ID",
"errorMessage": "The Product ID was invalid or missing",
"productId": "av_123"
}
You will always receive
error and errorMessage which is defined as:Field | Description |
|---|---|
error | The error code, a table of possible error codes is shown below. |
errorMessage | A human readable error message. |
Depending on the error code we also may pass additional fields which can make it easier to understand what's wrong in your request. In the example above we provide
productId and pass the value that was sent in the request, indicating that the productId of av_123 is not valid.Below is a list of the error codes and a description of what each means. Further down this page we also provide an example request body for all the error codes that provide additional attributes.
Code | Description |
|---|---|
INVALID_PRODUCT_ID | Missing or invalid productId in the request |
INVALID_OPTION_ID | Missing or invalid optionId in the request |
INVALID_UNIT_ID | Missing or invalid unitId in the request |
INVALID_AVAILABILITY_ID | Missing or invalid availabilityId in the request |
INVALID_BOOKING_UUID | Missing or invalid booking uuid, or if you're confirming the booking the booking may have expired already. |
BAD_REQUEST | If your request body is not formatted correctly, you have missing required fields or any of the data types are incorrect. |
UNPROCESSABLE_ENTITY | If your request body is technically correct but cannot be processed for other reasons. e.g. you tried to cancel a booking after the cancellation cutoff had elapsed. |
INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR | Hopefully this never happens, but if the backend server is down or there's a network outage. |
UNAUTHORIZED | You didn't send the API Key in the Authorization header to an endpoint that requires authentication. |
FORBIDDEN | You sent an API Key that was invalid or has been revoked by the backend system. Or you're trying to access an endpoint/resource that you do not have access to. |
As explained above it's also possible for specific error codes to have additional attributes that help you diagnose what is wrong with your request. Below are all the specific errors that contain these attributes:
