Errors · RocketShipIt

RocketShipIt will always return an error_message and errors field on every request.

A value in error_message indicates an error occurred with RocketShipIt itself. Also, a value other than 200 will also be present for code.

A value in errors indicates something of note occurred with the shipping carrier. These errors will range in severity indicated by the type field.

Two examples of errors originating from the carrier:

{
  "meta": {
    "code": 200,
    "error_message": ""
  },
  "data": {
    "errors": [
      {
        "code": "820",
        "description": "The destination state/province code has been changed.",
        "type": "NOTE"
      }
    ],
    ...

{
  "meta": {
    "code": 200,
    "error_message": ""
  },
  "data": {
    "errors": [
      {
        "code": "",

        "type": "Error"
      }
    ],
