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.

For example, if status code 201 is returned after calling the Creating an IAM User API, the request is successful.

Response Header

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

Check the response header of the Creating an IAM User API. The x-subject-token field is the user token. This token can then be used to authenticate the calling of other APIs.

Response Body

This part is optional. The body of a response is often returned in structured format (for example, JSON or XML) as specified in the Content-Type header field. The response body transfers content except the response header.

The following example shows a part of the response body of the Creating an IAM User API.

{ 
    "user": { 
        "id": "c131886aec...", 
        "name": "IAMUser", 
        "description": "IAM User Description", 
        "areacode": "", 
        "phone": "", 
        "email": "***@***.com", 
        "status": null, 
        "enabled": true, 
        "pwd_status": false, 
        "access_mode": "default", 
        "is_domain_owner": false, 
        "xuser_id": "", 
        "xuser_type": "", 
        "password_expires_at": null, 
        "create_time": "2024-05-21T09:03:41.000000", 
        "domain_id": "d78cbac1..........", 
        "xdomain_id": "30086000........", 
        "xdomain_type": "", 
        "default_project_id": null 
    } 
}

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

{ 
    "error_msg": "Request body is invalid.", 
    "error_code": "IAM.0011" 
}

In the response body, error_code is an error code, and error_msg provides information about the error.
