Time Series Database:Responses

Last Updated:May 11, 2018

For every request, a standard HTTP response code is returned. Most responses include content, particularly the error codes include details about what went wrong.

Successful requests

When a request succeeds, a corresponding response code is returned. If specific data is requested, the data is also returned. The returned data content and format vary with the API requests. For details, see Write data and Query data.

Failed requests

When an error occurs, the API returns a formatted JSON object for the error. The object’s fields include:

Field Type Required or not Description Example
code Integer Yes HTTP status code 400
message String Yes Brief error description Missing required parameter
details String Optional Detailed error description Missing value: type

Every error response includes an HTTP response code and a content body with error details.
