Error Reference Legacy API

Warning

The Legacy REST API is no longer under active development. It should not be used except when it provides capabilities not yet offered by the Grafana Cloud k6 REST API.

The API returns errors in the following format:

json
{
  "error": {
    "message": "<error text>",
    "code": 1,
    "detail_code": 99,
    "field_errors": {
      "fieldname1": ["error1", "error2"],
      "fieldname2": ["error1", "error2"]
    },
    "errors": ["error1", "error2"]
  }
}

message and code are required fields:

  • message describes the error.
  • code is an internal numerical identifier, useful when reporting problems to k6 support.

All other fields are optional. The field_errors object will have keys named after the data field causing a problem (fieldname1 and fieldname2 above are just examples) whereas the errors array will hold details about any other errors.

The most common error codes are (not a full list):
