Error handling

  1. 1.Implement try-catch blocks around all API calls
  2. 2.Check HTTP status codes: 2xx (success), 4xx (client error), 5xx (server error)
  3. 3.Parse error response body for detailed error information
  4. 4.Implement retry logic with exponential backoff for 5xx errors and rate limits (429)
  5. 5.Log errors with context (request ID, timestamp, parameters) for debugging
  6. 6.Set up monitoring and alerts for critical errors
  7. 7.Use webhooks to handle async operation failures

Handle API errors gracefully with proper error codes and retry logic. The Wubble API uses conventional HTTP response codes and provides detailed error messages to help you debug issues quickly.

Notes

  • 200 OK, 201 Created, 400 Bad Request, 401 Unauthorized, 403 Forbidden, 404 Not Found, 429 Too Many Requests, 500 Internal Server Error, 503 Service Unavailable.
  • Only retry 5xx errors and 429 rate limits. Don't retry 4xx errors (except 429) as they indicate client-side issues that won't be resolved by retrying.
  • Include the X-Request-ID header from error responses when contacting support. This helps us quickly identify and resolve issues.
