Errors

If your request returns no results, or is invalid for any reason, the API will respond with an "error" object.

	"error":{
		"code":"[ERROR NUMBER]"
		"type":"[ERROR TYPE]",
		"msg":"[SYSTEM MESSAGE]",
		"display":"[USER MESSAGE]"
	}
}

  • Error Level 0 = 'type', 'code'
  • Error Level 1 [default] = 'type', 'msg'
  • Error Level 2 = 'type', 'msg', 'code'
  • Error Level 3 = 'type', 'msg', 'code', 'display'

"bad_query" - Requested malformed URL or incorrect query options.
"not_authorized" - not properly authenticated or token is malformed/token.
"access_denied" - application disabled, or not permitted to perform the query with current credentials.
"no_token" - Token not passed or located in your querystring.
"secure_socket_required" - HTTPS required, all tasks require SSL.
"secret_required" - some apps require passcode to register token.
"failed" - Something went wrong while processing the request.  Unable to complete at this time.
"service_unavailable" - RTRT API is Service down for maintenance or some other issue.
