Errors
HTTP status codes returned by the Mangools API and how to handle them.
Mangools API uses conventional HTTP response codes to indicate the success or failure of an API request.
- Codes in the
2xxrange indicate success. - Codes in the
4xxrange indicate an error that failed given the information provided (e.g., a required parameter was omitted, a charge failed, etc.). - Codes in the
5xxrange indicate an error with Mangools's servers (these are rare).
| Error code | Description |
|---|---|
| 200 — OK | Everything worked as expected. |
| 400 — Bad Request | The request was unacceptable, often due to missing a required parameter. |
| 401 — Unauthorized | No valid API key provided. |
| 402 — Request Failed | The parameters were valid but the request failed. |
| 403 — Forbidden | The API key doesn't have permissions to perform the request. |
| 404 — Not Found | The requested resource doesn't exist. |
| 409 — Conflict | The request conflicts with another request (perhaps due to using the same idempotent key). |
| 429 — Too Many Requests | Too many requests hit the API too quickly. We recommend an exponential backoff of your requests. |
| 500, 502, 503, 504 — Server Errors | Something went wrong on Mangools's end. (These are rare.) |
