Soundcharts' API follows HTTP specifications regarding error handling. Each method describes the available response code it returns.

The response always contains an error array at the root level that can provide more detailed error messages :

{
"errors":
[
{
"key": "string",
"code": 0,
"message": "string"
}
]
}

Errors are as follows:

  • 400: Invalid request - if you don't understand why, please reach out to your point of contact at Soundcharts.

  • 401: Unauthorized - this means you are not logged in.

  • 403: Forbidden - this means you are not authorized to perform this operation. Please reach out to your point of contact at Soundcharts.

  • 404: Not Found - this means the entity you're searching for was not found. Please take a look at this article for more information.

  • 429: Too many requests - this means your quota is consumed, and new requests will fail. Please take a look at this article for more information.

  • 500: means the problem is on our end. Please reach out to your point of contact at Soundcharts.
