Error Handling

The API calls return error data that your client application can use to identify and resolve runtime errors. If an error occurs during the invocation of most API calls, then the API provides the following types of error handling:

  • For errors resulting from badly formed messages, failed authentication, or similar problems, the API returns a SOAP fault message.
  • TIBCO Reward's API uses generic error handling messages to pass back exceptions for web service calls.
  • For most calls, if the error occurs because of a problem specific to the query, the API returns an Error. For example, if a create request contains more than 200 objects.
