Tracer error list

The Tracer API returns errors as an RFC 9457 problem details object, served with the application/problem+json content type:

{
   "type": "https://errors.lerian.studio/v1/<error_code>",
   "title": "<error_title>",
   "status": <http_status>,
   "detail": "<error_message>",
   "code": "<error_code>"
}

Field definitions

type: A URI that identifies the error type, built as https://errors.lerian.studio/v1/ followed by the error code.
title: A brief summary of the issue.
status: The HTTP status code of the response.
detail: Detailed guidance for resolving the error. The tables below list this content in the message column.
code: A unique, stable identifier for the error. It is usually a four-digit numeric string drawn from the shared platform error registry (for example, 0347); authentication failures are the exception and use the literal string Unauthenticated (see the note below).
entityType: The entity the error relates to (for example, Rule). Only present when applicable.
message: The human-readable reason, exposed verbatim as a top-level field. Only present on 413 Payload Too Large and 504 Gateway Timeout responses; all other errors omit it.

For server-side errors (HTTP 5xx), title and detail are sanitized to generic values so internal causes never leak. Use code and type to identify the error. For 504 timeouts, the top-level message field still carries the specific reason.

Field-level validation Struct-level field validation failures return code 0009 with the title Validation Error and a detail that names the specific field and constraint — for example, transactionType must be one of [CARD WIRE PIX CRYPTO]. Examples:

{
   "type": "https://errors.lerian.studio/v1/0009",
   "title": "Validation Error",
   "status": 400,
   "detail": "name is a required field",
   "code": "0009"
}

{
   "type": "https://errors.lerian.studio/v1/0341",
   "title": "Expression Type",
   "status": 400,
   "detail": "Expression must return boolean.",
   "code": "0341",
   "entityType": "Rule"
}

Two response families keep a legacy flat {"code", "title", "message"} shape instead of the problem details object, because they are emitted by middleware that runs before the API layer. Authentication failures: a missing or invalid API key returns HTTP 401 with "code": "Unauthenticated", "title": "Unauthorized", and "message": "API Key missing or invalid" — match on the literal Unauthenticated string; a Bearer token that parses but lacks the required sub claim returns HTTP 401 with "code": "0474". Tenant capacity: code 0466 returns HTTP 503 in the same flat shape.

General errors

These errors can be returned by any Tracer API endpoint.

`code`	`title`	`message`
0009	Missing Fields in Request	Your request is missing one or more required fields: %v. Please refer to the documentation to ensure all necessary fields are included in your request.
0046	Internal Server Error	The server encountered an unexpected error. Please try again later or contact support.
0065	Invalid Path Parameter	One or more path parameters are in an incorrect format. Please check the following parameters %v and ensure they meet the required format before trying again.
0082	Invalid Query Parameter	One or more query parameters are in an incorrect format. Please check the following parameters ‘%v’ and ensure they meet the required format before trying again.
0094	Bad Request	The request body is malformed or contains invalid JSON. Please verify the syntax and try again.
0143	Payload Too Large	payload too large: exceeds 100KB limit
0183	Nothing to Update	No updatable fields were provided. Please include at least one field to update.
0330	Context Cancelled	Context cancelled / service unavailable.
0484	Route Not Found	The requested route does not exist. Please verify the HTTP method and path and try again.
0485	Method Not Allowed	The HTTP method is not allowed for the requested route. Please verify the method and try again.
0497	Request Header Fields Too Large	The request header fields are too large. Please reduce the size of the request headers and try again.

Code 0009 also appears with the title Validation Error when field-level validation rejects a request — see the note above. Code 0143 is returned with HTTP 413 when a request body exceeds the 100KB limit on the validation and reservation endpoints; the reason also appears in the top-level message field. Code 0497 is returned with HTTP 431 when the request headers are too large. Code 0484 is returned with HTTP 404 for a path the service does not serve, and code 0485 with HTTP 405 for a method the path does not accept.

Date and time errors

`code`	`title`	`message`
0077	Invalid Date Format Error	The ‘initialDate’, ‘finalDate’, or both are in the incorrect format. Please use the ‘yyyy-mm-dd’ format and try again.
0083	Invalid Date Range Error	Both ‘initialDate’ and ‘finalDate’ fields are required and must be in the ‘yyyy-mm-dd’ format. Please provide valid dates and try again.

Pagination errors

`code`	`title`	`message`
0080	Pagination Limit Exceeded	The pagination limit exceeds the maximum allowed of %v items per page. Please verify the limit and try again.

Reservation errors

These errors are returned by the usage-reservation endpoints (/reservations), the two-phase reserve / confirm / release surface. Reservation requests can also return the general and validation-request errors listed above.

`code`	`title`	`message`
0476	Reservation Transaction IDReq	Reservation: transactionId is required.
0480	Reservation Invalid Status	Reservation: status must be one of RESERVED, CONFIRMED, RELEASED, EXPIRED.

0483	Reservation Already Terminal	Reservation: reservation is already in a terminal state.
0487	Reservation Tenant Required	Reservation: tenant id is required on the multi-tenant reservation surface.

Multi-tenant and authentication errors

The instance returns HTTP 503 with a Retry-After header when it reaches its per-pod tenant worker cap; clients should back off and retry. A Bearer token that parses but lacks the required sub claim is rejected with HTTP 401.

`code`	`title`	`message`
0466	Tenant Capacity Reached	Tenant capacity reached; please retry shortly
0474	Unauthorized	Bearer token is missing the required ‘sub’ claim; identity cannot be attributed.

Multi-tenant bootstrap errors

These codes surface only at service startup, when MULTI_TENANT_ENABLED=true and a required configuration is missing or incompatible. They appear in startup logs and prevent the service from starting; they never reach /v1/* API consumers.

`code`	`title`	`message`
0451	MTConfig Required	Multi-tenant config: cfg is required.
0452	MTLogger Required	Multi-tenant config: logger is required.
0453	MTURLRequired	MULTI_TENANT_URL must be set when MULTI_TENANT_ENABLED=true.
0454	MTURLInvalid	MULTI_TENANT_URL must be a valid absolute URL with scheme and host.
0455	MTService APIKey Required	MULTI_TENANT_SERVICE_API_KEY must be set when MULTI_TENANT_ENABLED=true.
0456	MTRedis Host Required	MULTI_TENANT_REDIS_HOST must be set when MULTI_TENANT_ENABLED=true.
0457	MTPlugin Auth Required	MULTI_TENANT_ENABLED=true requires PLUGIN_AUTH_ENABLED=true.
0458	MTAPIKey Only Validation Confl	MULTI_TENANT_ENABLED=true is incompatible with API_KEY_ENABLED_ONLY_VALIDATION=true.

Readiness probe errors

These codes are surfaced by the operational /readyz endpoint and by the worker-supervisor lifecycle. They appear in the error field of the /readyz JSON response — which carries the code only — not in /v1/* API responses. The title and message below describe each code for operator reference. The /readyz cycle probes five dependencies: postgres and rule_cache always; redis and tenant_manager only in multi-tenant mode (skipped otherwise); streaming is advisory — it appears in the checks and metrics but never forces a 503.

`code`	`title`	`message`
0436	Rule Cache Warm Up Failed	Rule cache warm-up failed.
0459	Readyz Pg Connection Not Established	Postgres readyz: connection not established.
0460	Readyz Pg Connection Failed	Postgres readyz: connection failed.
0461	Readyz Pg Ping Failed	Postgres readyz: ping failed.
0462	Readyz Dependencies Unhealthy	/readyz aggregate: one or more dependencies unhealthy.
0463	Readyz Cache Not Ready	Rule_cache readyz: cache not ready.
0464	Readyz Cache Stale	Rule_cache readyz: cache data stale.
0465	Supervisor Shutting Down	Worker supervisor: shutting down, refusing to spawn new tenant workers.
0493	Readyz Redis Connection Not Established	Redis readyz: connection not established.
0494	Readyz Redis Ping Failed	Redis readyz: ping failed.
0495	Readyz Tenant Manager Unavailable	Tenant_manager readyz: service unavailable.
0496	Readyz Streaming Unhealthy	Streaming readyz: producer unhealthy.
