Errors

These are some of the most common HTTP errors that users encounter when working with websites or APIs. They indicate that there are issues with the request sent to the server or how the server responds to that request. Their frequency makes them well-known and useful for identifying problems between the client (such as a browser or app) and the server.

400

Method not found. The requested API method does not exist. Bad request. The syntax of the request is incorrect (for OAuth2 authentication).

404

File or folder not found.

401

Unauthorized. Either the token is incorrect or expired, or the requested data is outside of the scope of the client. It grants full access to your personal account.

405

Method not allowed. The used HTTP method is not supported for this API method.
