Common API Errors

The Business Glossary has standard API error codes and descriptions.

The following table describes the common API errors:

Error	Description
400	Bad input parameter. This error can occur when a parameter is missing, or the client cannot be identified.
401	Not valid or expired access cookie. This error occurs because the business glossary expired an access cookie. Authenticate the user again.
403	Forbidden. Bad request. This error can occur when a client looks up a restricted business term.
404	Not found. This error occurs when a business term cannot be found in the business glossary.
500	Server error. This error can occur if an internal error occurs on the machine on which the Analyst Service runs.
