Errors

In addition to the standard json-rpc errors and authentication errors, application.update may also return these errors:

HTTP Status Code JSON-RPC Code Error Message Description
400 1000 Invalid Object The object could not be updated because the object would be invalid.  See Validating Fields for details on the format of this error.
400 1001 Duplicate Object The object could not be updated because a change would cause it to conflict with a different object that already exists.
400 1002 Field "x" is required. The object could not be updated because a primary identifier was not passed to enable finding the object to update.
500 2002 Update Failed The object could not be updated.  This is the error message of last resort for object updates and usually indicates a systems integration failure, invalid internal data, or a transient issue.  These errors are logged by Mashery.
400 5000 Object "type" with "key" of "value" could not be found The object could not be updated because it could not be found.
