API Response

Lumyri uses conventional HTTP response codes to indicate the success or failure of an API request. In general:

  • Codes in the 2xx range indicate success.
  • Codes in the 4xx range indicate an error that failed given the information provided (e.g., a required parameter was omitted, a charge failed, etc.).
  • Codes in the 5xx range indicate an error with Lumyri's servers (these are rare).

Some 4xx errors that could be handled programmatically include an error code that briefly explains the error reported.

HTTP status codes summary

status codedescription
200 - okEverything worked as expected
201 - create successEverything worked as expected
400 - Bad RequestThe request was unacceptable, often due to missing a required parameter
401 - UnauthorizedNo valid access token provided
402 - Request FailedThe parameters were valid but the request failed
403 - ForbiddenThe API key doesn't have permission to perform the request
404 - Not FoundThe requested resource doesn't exist.
409 - ConflictThe request conflicts with another request (perhaps due to using the same idempotent key).
429 - Too Many RequestsToo many requests hit the API too quickly. We recommend an exponential backoff of your requests.
500, 502, 503 - Server ErrorsSomething went wrong on Stripe's end. (These are rare.)
