Response

Status Code

After sending a request, you will receive a response, including a status code, response header, and response body.

A status code is a group of digits, ranging from 1xx to 5xx. It indicates the status of a request. For more information, see Status Codes.

If status code 201 is returned for the calling of the API for obtaining a user token, the request is successful.

Response Header

Similar to a request, a response also has a header, for example, Content-Type.

For the API used to obtain a user token, the x-subject-token header field is the desired user token. This token can then be used to authenticate the calling of other APIs.

Response Body

The body of a response is often returned in structured format as specified in the Content-Type header field. The response body transfers content except the response header.

The following is part of the response body for the API used to obtain a user token.

{
    "token": {
        "expires_at": "2019-02-13T06:52:13.855000Z",
        "methods": [
            "password"
        ],
        "catalog": [
            {
                "endpoints": [
                    {
                        "region_id": "xx-xxxxxx-1",
......

If an error occurs during API calling, an error code and a message will be displayed. The following shows an error response body.

{ 
    "errorCode": "SVCSTG_AMS_4000001", 
    "errorMessage": "Request param invalid" 
}

In the response body, errorCode is an error code, and errorMessage provides information about the error.
