Error Reference

Every failing call returns the same envelope. This page lists the values that can appear in it.

Error Response Format

{
  "error_reason": "ErrorInvalidField",
  "error_description": "Human-readable message",
  "error_category": {
    "category": "CategoryValidationFailure",
    "http_status_code": 400
  },
  "error_details": [
    { "key": "field", "details": "email" },
    { "key": "issue", "details": "invalid_format" }

}

Field	Description
`error_reason`	Machine-readable reason. Branch on this
`error_description`	Human-readable message. Do not parse it
`error_category.category`	Category the reason resolved to for this call
`error_category.http_status_code`	HTTP status returned
`error_details`	Key/value pairs naming the offending field and the issue. Present on most validation failures

Error Reasons

The closed set of error_reason values. Any endpoint can return any of them.

Error Reason	Meaning
`ErrorMissingField`	A required field was not sent
`ErrorInvalidField`	A field failed validation or carried an unrecognised value
`ErrorInvalidStatus`	The entity's status does not permit the action
`ErrorNotFound`	The referenced entity does not exist, or is not visible to this user
`ErrorAlreadyExists`	The entity already exists
`ErrorPermissionDenied`	Authentication succeeded but the operation is not permitted
`ErrorNotSupported`	The operation is not available — wrong company type, unsupported flow, or no configuration
`ErrorExpired`	A token or estimate has expired
`ErrorTooManyRequests`	Rate limit reached
`ErrorInsufficientFunds`	The wallet does not hold enough of the token
`ErrorLimitExceeded`	A configured limit was exceeded
`ErrorConfigurationInvalid`	A platform configuration problem. Contact Wirex
`ErrorGeneral`	An unclassified failure
`ErrorUnknown`	An unmapped failure
`ErrorResponseInvalid`	A downstream response could not be parsed
`ErrorInvalidMethod`	The HTTP method is not supported on that path
`ErrorTimeout`	A downstream call timed out
`ErrorInitFailed`	A component failed to initialise
`ErrorNotImplemented`	The operation is not implemented
`ErrorDeadlinesExceeded`	A deadline was exceeded
`ErrorCanceled`	The operation was cancelled
`ErrorReverted`	An on-chain call reverted
`ErrorNotYetValid`	The operation is not valid yet — a time-locked withdrawal before its execution window

Error Categories

Category	HTTP	Meaning
`CategoryValidationFailure`	400	The request was rejected
`CategoryUnauthorized`	401	Authentication failed
`CategoryForbidden`	403	Authenticated, but the operation is not permitted
`CategoryTransientFailure`	429	Transient rejection
`CategoryInternalFailure`	500	Server-side failure
`CategoryTransportFailure`	503	A downstream service was unreachable

Branch on error_reason, not on the HTTP status — a reason is not bound to one category across every
endpoint.
