Errors

For information about the errors that are common to all actions, see Common Error Types.

AccessDeniedException

The exception that occurs when you do not have sufficient permissions to perform an action. Verify that your IAM policy includes the necessary permissions for the operation you are trying to perform.

HTTP Status Code: 403

ConflictException

The exception that occurs when the request conflicts with the current state of the resource. This can happen when trying to modify a resource that is currently being modified by another request, or when trying to create a resource that already exists.

HTTP Status Code: 409

InternalServerException

The exception that occurs when the service encounters an unexpected internal error. This is a temporary condition that will resolve itself with retries. We recommend implementing exponential backoff retry logic in your application.

HTTP Status Code: 500

ServiceQuotaExceededException

The exception that occurs when the request would cause a service quota to be exceeded. Review your service quotas and either reduce your request rate or request a quota increase.

HTTP Status Code: 402

ThrottlingException

The exception that occurs when the request was denied due to request throttling. This happens when you exceed the allowed request rate for an operation. Reduce the frequency of requests or implement exponential backoff retry logic in your application.

HTTP Status Code: 429

UnauthorizedException

This exception is thrown when the JWT bearer token is invalid or not found for OAuth bearer token based access

HTTP Status Code: 401

ValidationException

The exception that occurs when the input fails to satisfy the constraints specified by the service. Check the error message for details about which input parameter is invalid and correct your request.
