outcomestring

ok, or the error code it answered.

paramsobject

The query params as sent (at most 32; a value longer than 2048 characters is cut). Run the request again with them.

params_truncatedboolean

true when a param or a value was cut: params is not the whole request.

response_bodyobject

Whether its answer's body was kept (GET /v1/requests/{id}/response returns it).

expires_atstring date-timenullable

When the kept body is (or was) deleted, RFC 3339 UTC; null when off or not_stored.

size_bytesintegernullable

The whole answer body's size in bytes; null when off or not_stored.

statusstring

stored: GET /v1/requests/{id}/response returns it until expires_at. expired: it was kept, and deleted 7 days after the request. off: the account was not keeping response bodies when the request was made (keep_response_bodies). not_stored: it was on, but this body could not be stored, or it answered without a charge past the small allowance of those kept per minute (charged answers are always kept).

One ofstoredexpiredoffnot_stored

truncatedboolean

true when the answer was longer than 1 MB: only its first 1 MB were kept.

surfacestring

How it reached the API: rest (an HTTP request), mcp (an MCP tool call) or job (a request of a job). New values may be added.

metaobject

The shared route meta (see the API reference introduction).

400

400 Bad Request.

A parameter is missing or malformed, or the link is not one this endpoint takes.

Fix the parameter named in param as the message says. For a link of the wrong kind, call an endpoint listed in details.endpoints, when there is one.

401

401 Unauthorized.

unauthorizedNo retry

The x-api-key header is missing, or its key is unknown or revoked. On the dashboard's routes: the session cookie is missing or expired.

Send a valid API key in the x-api-key header. No key yet? A person gets one at details.signup_url; an AI agent follows details.agent_auth_url.

403

403 Forbidden.

forbiddenNo retry

The API key is valid but may not make this request, and details.reason says why: the account is suspended, the key lacks the route's scope, waits for its owner to confirm it by email, has expired, or was used from an IP outside its allowlist, or a rotated key's previous secret was used for a call that needs the admin scope. A running job stops with it too when its account is suspended or the key that created it is revoked or expires. It is about the key, never the item: a private item is private_or_unavailable, also 403, so branch on the code.

Act on details.reason. suspended: contact support. scope: use a key with details.required_scope. previous_secret: use the new secret. key_pending: have the owner open the emailed link. key_expired or key_revoked: create a new key. ip_not_allowed: call from an allowed IP.

404

404 Not Found.

not_foundNo retry

The item does not exist or was deleted. On GET /v1/requests/{id}/response: the response was not kept (details.reason says why).

Check the link or ID. Do not retry.

429

429 Too Many Requests.

rate_limitedYes, later

The account passed its runaway-protection ceiling: a high per-account limit that stops a broken client loop (plans have no rate limit). Requests without an API key (signup, the MCP server's tool listing and find_endpoint) are limited per IP address instead. It also stops an account whose failed requests in the last hour cost far more than its successful ones paid for: failures are free within a limit (the message says so), and successes raise it.

Wait the seconds in the retry-after header, then retry. If your steady traffic needs more, ask support to raise the ceiling; without an API key, send one.
