Everabyte Cloud Storage API Error Handling Guide#
Effective error handling is essential for smooth interactions with the Everabyte Cloud Storage API. This guide explains the standardized error codes, their meanings, and best practices for troubleshooting and prevention.Understanding Error Responses#
Each API response includes an HTTP status code and often an accompanying message, helping identify the nature of any issue encountered:Success (2xx): Indicates a successful request, e.g., 200 OK, 201 Created.
Client Errors (4xx): Issues originating from the request, such as invalid parameters or missing credentials, e.g., 400 Bad Request, 401 Unauthorized.
Server Errors (5xx): Problems on Everabyte’s side, like 500 Internal Server Error.
Troubleshooting Common Errors#
401 Unauthorized: Verify the API key is correctly included and valid.
400 Bad Request: Check request syntax, parameter completeness, and formatting per API specs.
404 Not Found: Confirm the targeted resource exists.
500 Internal Server Error: Usually transient; retry after a brief pause. If persistent, contact support.
429 Too Many Requests: Request rate limit exceeded. Pause requests and review your plan’s limits.
Best Practices for Avoiding Errors#
Input Validation: Ensure all required inputs conform to expected formats before sending requests.
Implement Retry Logic: Automatically retry transient errors to maintain resilience.
Monitor API Usage: Track request volume to stay within rate limits and keep informed about platform status.
