What Do the Troubleshooting HTTP Status Codes for Airship Mobile Wallet Mean?

This document provides information relating to HTTP status codes when using the Airship Wallet API

This article will outline:

  • Common status codes
  • Short tips for troubleshooting 

Common status codes and tips:

400 - Invalid Request Parameters

Invalid Request Parameters error codes can be caused by attempting to create a pass under an existing external ID.  External IDs are designed to allow passes to be generated once, then updated with new data on an ongoing basis.

 

401 - Unauthorized

Airship requires a base64 encoded combination of the Project Key and Project Secret in order to use the Wallet API. For more information see our documentation. 

 

500 - Internal Server Error

This indicates that there is an issue on the Airship side that is causing the request to fail. This can be due to a number of factors including production incidents. Check out status page prior to contacting support if you are experiencing 500 errors from Mobile Wallet API endpoints. 

 

406 - Not Acceptable Request 

Most often these will happen due to missing data with the send. Is it a POST type sent with no valid JSON? 

POST type requests will almost always need corresponding data such as the below JSON section:

 -d 'json={"fronds": {}, "publicURL": {"type": "multiple"}}'

 

404 - The resource is no longer at that location

These can happen when you pass a correct API key but incorrect pass ID, or when trying to send a change to a pass that has not been installed to any devices.
Double-check the pass ID (please note this is not the external ID)

 {"code":404,"description":"The resource is no longer at that location.","details":"object not found :Pass not found! Please pass a valid external Id instead of 1234567891011"}%
