Error Responses

Errors are returned as HTTP codes in the 4XX range. All errors are accompanied by a JSON response that provides the details of the error so corrective action can be taken.

    {
      "errors": [
        {
          "source": {
            "pointer": "a JSON Pointer RFC6901 to the associated entity in the request document E.g. \"/data\" for a primary data object, or \"/data/attributes/title\" for a specific attribute.",
            "parameter": "a string indicating which URI query parameter caused the error."
          },
          "detail": "<long error message>",
          "status": "<error code - same as HTTP status code>",
          "title": "<brief error message - typically same as the HTTP status title>"
        },
        ...
      ]
    }

See the documentation for the individual endpoint for the specifics of the errors that apply to that endpoint.
