Ladies and Gentlemen,

I present you the API I'm working with...

That's a pretty fucking useful error description right there.

    And this one from the documentation. A required property (Igen -> required: yes) with a fucking TODO. And no, that asterisk doesn't point to any description either.

    Well at least it tells you that your request was not ok :P

    @bosi Yeah, or the annoying "Something happened".

    @Teosz I can relate to that.. Once upon a time (not so long ago) I've been working with a service which returns "going well" in case of a success and "default response" or *a handful of business errors which they didn't want to list for me so that I could implement proper error handling* otherwise. Of course it was not supposed to be propagated to PROD like this but.. who cares

    At least they gave me a sample request so now I've found the mistake, and once the structure of the request is alright they give proper error messages. But would have been good if I didn't have to inspect my input line by line just to find out that one property is an array of objects instead of an object that's stated in the docs.

    I like that it's a capital E. Someone actually took the time to make sure it's capitalized instead of providing any other info.

    Error: This shit is quite common for alot of systems. May be a catch to have you get into an API Support Contract and in Open Source systems it is less...

    The most annoying error message is still: There was an issue. Please contact your administrator.
    I'm the closest you'll get of an admin. Tell me what went fucking wrong!

    nCore I see,
    shivers I get,
    Evry dark dream returns,
    and a life of regret.

    The Gekko stirs,
    shedding it's skins,
    the Elements unite,
    a dark dream begins.

    I regularly have to work with apis coded by others that throw a 500 status on any error, and the response message contains the actual error code but no description of why.

    Maybe it wants to tell you that life is an error
