Test outcome
Authentication required or token is invalid/expired. This error occurs when:
- No Authorization header is provided
- The access token is invalid or malformed
- The access token has expired
- The access token has been revoked
To resolve: Obtain a new access token using the OAuth 2.0 flow.
The authenticated user does not have permission to access this resource. This typically means:
- The user is authenticated but lacks the required OAuth scope
- The resource belongs to a different user
- The user's role doesn't allow this operation
Check that your OAuth token includes the necessary scopes for this endpoint.
The requested resource does not exist or is not visible to this token.
Endpoint is not subscribed to the event, or the event has no example
Too many requests in a short time period. The API enforces rate limits to ensure fair usage and system stability. When you exceed the limit, you'll receive this error along with headers indicating when you can retry.
Check the X-RateLimit-Reset header to know when your limit will reset.
Consider implementing exponential backoff in your application.
