API Errors
Woolf’s Airlock API uses structured error handling to help you detect and resolve issues during integration. Errors are returned in two forms: network errors and GraphQL errors.
Understanding API Errors
-
Network errors return no data and result in standard HTTP error status codes like:
400,401,413,429,500,504. - GraphQL errors appear inside the response and may return partial data in a query, but mutations will not execute.
⚠️ A
401 Unauthorized response usually means your College Token is invalid, expired, or lacks required permissions.System Error Codes
