Kaizen #25 - Zoho CRM API - Common Errors and Error Handling

Hello everyone!
Welcome back to yet another post in Kaizen!
In this post, we will discuss the most common errors that you may encounter while using Zoho CRM APIs. You can consider this post to be a concise guide that you can refer to whenever you are stuck with any error while making API calls. 

All Zoho CRM V2 APIs follow REST standards, i.e, they use the HTTP request methods GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, and DELETE. 

Here is a quick glance at the functionality of each request method. 
  • GET : To retrieve data/resource from the resource server. For instance, Get Records API .
  • POST : To insert or upload any new resource to the server. For instance Insert Records API .
  • PUT : To update an existing resource . This replaces the target resource with the updated content. For instance, the Update Records API .
  • PATCH : To update a specific detail of the resource. This method updates the target resource with the provided content without changing the other data. For instance, the Update Specific Information of a Notification API
  • DELETE : To delete a resource at a particular location. For instance, the Delete Records API
Now, let us see the common errors that you may face while making these API calls. Every API error has three main sections:
  1. Status Code
  2. Error Code
  3. Message
In this post, we have grouped the errors based on the status code , primarily focusing on the 4XX class of errors. 
  1. Errors with status code 400
    • INVALID_MODULE
    • INVALID_DATA
    • DUPLICATE_DATA
    • MANDATORY_NOT_FOUND
    • PATTERN_NOT_MATCHED
    • INVALID_REQUEST_METHOD
    • REQUIRED_PARAM_MISSING
    • LICENSE_LIMIT_EXCEEDED
  2. Errors with status code 401
    • AUTHENTICATION_FAILED
    • OAUTH_SCOPE_MISMATCH
    • INVALID_TOKEN
  3. Errors with the status code 403
    • NO_PERMISSION
    • FEATURE_NOT_SUPPORTED
  4. Errors with status code 404
    • INVALID_URL_PATTERN
1. Errors with status code 400

Possible Reasons
When there is any error in the input you specified, you will get an error status code 400. 
Some of the common error codes and messages under 400 are:

a. INVALID_MODULE: the module name given seems to be invalid

{
  "code": "INVALID_MODULE",
  "details": {},
  "message": "the module name given seems to be invalid",
  "status": "error"
}

APIs in which you might face this error

Description
The module name specified in the Request URL or in the Parameter is incorrect . You must always specify the right API name of the module in the input. To get the list of module API names, go to Setup > Developer Space  > APIs > API Names . Alternatively, the value in the key " api_name " in the Modules API indicates the API name of the module. 

API names of the default modules in Zoho CRM
Leads, Accounts, Contacts, Deals, Campaigns, Tasks, Cases, Events, Calls, Solutions, Products, Vendors, Price_Books, Quotes, Sales_Orders, Purchase_Orders, Invoices, Custom, and Activities. 

b. INVALID_DATA: <<varies based on API>>
{
  "code": "INVALID_DATA",
  "details": {
      "expected_data_type": "jsonobject"
    },
  "message": "body",
  "status": "error"
}

APIs in which you might face this error
Upload Organization Photo, Users APIs (except Get Users and Get Specific User), Records APIs (except Get List of Records, Get Specific Record, Get List of Deleted Records, Search Records), Subforms APIs (except Get Subforms), Related List APIs, CRM Variable APIs (except Get Variable Data, Get Specific Variable Data, Get Variable Groups), Blueprint APIs, Tags APIs (except Get Tags List and Get Record Count for a Tag), Notes APIs (except Get Notes Data), Files and Attachments APIs, Mass Update APIs, Currencies APIs (except Get Currencies Data and Get Specific Currency), Share API, Notification APIs (except Get Notification Details).

Description
You will face this error when there is an error in the input you specified . For instance, 
  • Input specified for any field may be in an improper JSON format (as shown in the above example, the expected JSON format is JSON Object) or an invalid data type
  • The unique ID of the record to be updated may be incorrect
You can identify the case based on the value of the "message" key. 

Refer to Kaizen #1 Fields in CRM to know more about the field types. 

Another similar error is UNABLE_TO_PARSE_DATATYPE. This error occurs when the request body or the parameter is in the wrong format. 

APIs in which you might face this error

Example:
Request URL to delete specific Leads-
https://www.zohoapis.com/crm/v2/Leads?ids= "410405000002264040,410405000002264025"
-X DELETE

{
  "code": "UNABLE_TO_PARSE_DATA_TYPE",
  "details": {},
  "message": "either the request body or parameters is in wrong format",
  "status": "error"
}

The parameters must be passed as long integers, and not strings enclosed in quotes.  

c. DUPLICATE_DATA: duplicate data

{
  "data": [
      {
        "code": "DUPLICATE_DATA",
        "details": {
            "api_name": "Mobile",
            "id": "4150868000001747019"
        },
        "message": "duplicate data",
        "status": "error"
     }
  ]
}

APIs in which you might face this error

Description
You will face this error while making the POST or PUT API calls. When you have enabled " Do not allow duplicate values " for a field, and insert or update that field in a record with a value that already exists in another record, this error will be thrown. In other words, this error is thrown when you have specified a duplicate value to a system-defined or user-defined unique field.

The value "true" for the key "unique" in the Fields metadata API indicates that the field is marked as unique. Alternatively, you can check if a field is unique in the module builder in CRM UI. Go to setup > Customization > Modules and Fields > Choose the module > Choose layout > in the more options of the desired field > Check if Do not allow duplicate values is enabled. 



d. MANDATORY_NOT_FOUND: required field not found
{
    "users": [
        {
            "code": "MANDATORY_NOT_FOUND",
            "details": {
                "api_name": "role"
            },
            "message": "required field not found",
            "status": "error"
        }
    ]
}

APIs in which you might face this error

        "api_name": "type"
    },
    "message": "Please check whether the input values are correct",
    "status": "error"
}

Anyone else hear had problems with the MS addin?  FYI, I am using O365 on A Dell laptop running Win 10 Home - fully patched and up-to-date.  I have tried compatibility modes and running explicitly as Administrator - the usual steps. Any advice would be appreciated.
