Introduction

The Unkey API returns machine readable error codes to quickly identify the type of error as well as link to the docs and a requestId. Please always include the requestId in your error report.

{
  error: {
    code: "UNAUTHORIZED",
    message: "We were unable to authorize your request. Either your key was missing, malformed or does not have the required permissions.",
    docs: "https://unkey.api/docs/api-reference/errors/code/BAD_REQUEST",
    requestId: "req_1234567890"
  }
}

If you can’t debug something on your own or think there is a bug, please get in touch with us on Discord or Email and provide the full error response.
