Error Messages

All error messages are currently always returned in a JSON format.

A typical error in the JSON format looks like the following example:

{     
       "type":"http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec10.html#sec10.4.5",
       "title":"NotFoundException",
       "status":404,
       "detail":"Entity with ID qqqwww not found",
       "instance":"http://.../iot/api/v1/endpoints/qqqwww",
       "o:errorCode":"urn:oracle:cloud:client:error:not-found",
       "o:errorPath":"/qqqwww"
}

The following table describes the properties used in the error example above.
