Common Errors #
All Kuzzle requests can return one of the following errors:
BadRequestError #
status: 400
A BadRequestError error is thrown if Kuzzle was unable to process the action due to a malformed request, or if required parameters are missing.
ExternalServiceError #
status: 500
An ExternalServiceError error is thrown if Kuzzle was unable to process the action due to an external service failure (e.g. database down).
ForbiddenError #
status: 403
A ForbiddenError error is thrown if the current authenticated user is not authorized to perform the requested action.
GatewayTimeoutError #
status: 504
A GatewayTimeoutError error is thrown if Kuzzle, or a plugin, takes too long to respond.
Receiving this error does not guarantee the original request was not processed, just that it was not processed in time.
The Client Application will have to determine if the process was completed.
InternalError #
status: 500
An InternalError error is thrown if Kuzzle encountered an unexpected error.
PluginImplementationError #
status: 500
A PluginImplementationError error is a generic error thrown by Kuzzle on a plugin failure.
ServiceUnavailableError #
status: 503
A ServiceUnavailableError error can be sent by Kuzzle if it overloaded and cannot temporarily accept new requests, or if the requested Kuzzle instance is shutting down.
Specific errors #
These errors are specific to controller actions. Check controllers documentation.
NotFoundError #
status: 404
A NotFoundError error is thrown if the requested resource could not be found (e.g. a document is requested with a non-existing id).
PartialError #
status: 206
A PartialError error is thrown if Kuzzle was unable to process a subset of a multi-action request.
A PartialError can be triggered, for instance, if one or several queries inside a document:mCreate request failed.
The detail of each failure can be retrieved in the errors property of the error object.
