Error Handling
API errors and their description
HTTP Errors (4xx/5xx)
As with any web service, our API will return 4xx
and 5xx
level errors when appropriate. Always check the status code to ensure the request was successfully received and successfully handled.
A 4xx
level error code indicates that something is wrong with the request. Our recommendation is to double check the request for any typos.
A 5xx
level error code indicates that something went wrong on our end. Our recommendation is to attempt the request again and check our API's status. If the request is still failing let us know at support@truemail.com.
API Errors
All 2xx
level responses will contain a status
property. This property will indicate whether the requested operation was successfully completed or if an error was encountered.
When an error does occur a message
property will be included with a detailed message about why it failed. These error messages will be returned with a 200 level status code.
