Diagnostics

OpenAPI Explorer provides a diagnostics feature for errors that occur when API operations are called. If an error occurs when you call API operations, you can use the error code to query the cause and suggestions for the error.

Examples:

1. Assume that you entered the wrong region ID when calling the DescribeSecurityGroupAttribute operation, and the following error is reported:

   {
     "RequestId": "01C8238B-B79B-50C5-9011-D9AC41509C23",
     "HostId": "ecs-unit-share.cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com",
     "Code": "InvalidSecurityGroupId.NotFound",
     "Message": "The specified SecurityGroupId does not exist.",
     "Recommend": "https://api.aliyun.com/troubleshoot?q=InvalidSecurityGroupId.NotFound&product=Ecs"
   }

2. Go to the Alibaba Cloud OpenAPI Diagnostics page: https://next.api.alibabacloud.com/troubleshoot.

3. Enter the request ID and click Diagnose.

4. View the diagnostics result. Example:
