Data structures

Exception: EDAMUserException

FieldType
errorCodeEDAMErrorCode
parameterstring

This exception is thrown by EDAM procedures when a call fails as a result of a problem that a caller may be able to resolve. For example, if the user attempts to add a note to their account which would exceed their storage quota, this type of exception may be thrown to indicate the source of the error so that they can choose an alternate action.

This exception would not be used for internal system errors that do not reflect user actions, but rather reflect a problem within the service that the user cannot resolve.

errorCode: The numeric code indicating the type of error that occurred. must be one of the values of EDAMErrorCode.

parameter: If the error applied to a particular input parameter, this will indicate which parameter.

Exception: EDAMSystemException

FieldType
errorCodeEDAMErrorCode
messagestring
rateLimitDurationi32

This exception is thrown by EDAM procedures when a call fails as a result of a problem in the service that could not be changed through caller action.

errorCode: The numeric code indicating the type of error that occurred. must be one of the values of EDAMErrorCode.

message: This may contain additional information about the error

rateLimitDuration: Indicates the minimum number of seconds that an application should expect subsequent API calls for this user to fail. The application should not retry API requests for the user until at least this many seconds have passed. Present only when errorCode is RATE_LIMIT_REACHED,

Exception: EDAMNotFoundException

FieldType
identifierstring
keystring

This exception is thrown by EDAM procedures when a caller asks to perform an operation on an object that does not exist. This may be thrown based on an invalid primary identifier (e.g. a bad GUID), or when the caller refers to an object by another unique identifier (e.g. a User's email address).

identifier: A description of the object that was not found on the server. For example, "Note.notebookGuid" when a caller attempts to create a note in a notebook that does not exist in the user's account.

key: The value passed from the client in the identifier, which was not found. For example, the GUID that was not found.
