API Testing Errors

Docs > Synthetic Testing and Monitoring > API Testing > API Testing Errors

HTTP errors

The message Error performing HTTP/2 request may occur when a remote server’s HTTP support is inconsistent. For example, suppose you run a test that reaches an endpoint on a server that supports HTTP 2. On the next run, if the test comes across the same endpoint on a server that only has HTTP 1.1 support, the test fails to establish an HTTP 2 connection and returns an error. In this scenario, switching to HTTP/1.1 prevents the error.

SSL errors

SSL errors can occur during an API test run. They are different from failing assertions on SSL tests and can occur on all types of API tests.

Error	Description
`CERT_CHAIN_TOO_LONG`	The certificate chain length is greater than the supplied maximum depth.
`CERT_HAS_EXPIRED`	The certificate is expired.
`CERT_NOT_YET_VALID`	The certificate is not valid until a future date.
`CERT_REJECTED`	The root CA is marked to reject the purpose specified.
`CERT_REVOKED`	The certificate was revoked by the issuer.
`CERT_UNTRUSTED`	The root CA is not marked as trusted for its intended purpose.
`CERT_SIGNATURE_FAILURE`	The signature of the certificate is not valid.
`CRL_HAS_EXPIRED`	The certificate revocation list (CRL) has expired.
`CRL_NOT_YET_VALID`	The certificate revocation list (CRL) is not valid until a future date.
`CRL_SIGNATURE_FAILURE`	The CRL signature of the certificate is not valid.
`DEPTH_ZERO_SELF_SIGNED_CERT`	The passed certificate is self-signed and the same certificate cannot be found in the list of trusted certificates.
`ERROR_IN_CERT_NOT_AFTER_FIELD`	There is a format error in the notAfter field in the certificate.
`ERROR_IN_CERT_NOT_BEFORE_FIELD`	There is a format error in the notBefore field in the certificate.
`ERROR_IN_CRL_LAST_UPDATE_FIELD`	The CRL lastUpdate field contains an invalid time.
`ERROR_IN_CRL_NEXT_UPDATE_FIELD`	The CRL nextUpdate field contains an invalid time.
`INVALID_CA`	A CA certificate is not valid because it is not a CA or its extensions are not consistent with the intended purpose.
`INVALID_PURPOSE`	The certificate that was provided cannot be used for its intended purpose.
`OUT_OF_MEM`	An error occurred while allocating memory.
`PATH_LENGTH_EXCEEDED`	The basicConstraints pathlength parameter was exceeded.
`SELF_SIGNED_CERT_IN_CHAIN`	A self-signed certificate exists in the certificate chain. The certificate chain can be built using the untrusted certificates, but the root CA cannot be found locally.
`UNABLE_TO_DECODE_ISSUER_PUBLIC_KEY`	The public key in the certificate cannot be read.
`UNABLE_TO_DECRYPT_CERT_SIGNATURE`	Unable to decrypt the signature of the certificate.
`UNABLE_TO_DECRYPT_CRL_SIGNATURE`	The CRL signature cannot be decrypted. (The actual signature value cannot be determined.)
`UNABLE_TO_GET_CRL`	The certificate revocation list (CRL) is not found.
`UNABLE_TO_GET_ISSUER_CERT`	Unable to find the certificate for one of the certificate authorities (CAs) in the signing hierarchy, and that CA is not trusted by the local application. For example, this error may be thrown when the self-signed root CA, but not the intermediate CA, is missing from the list of trusted certificates.
`UNABLE_TO_GET_ISSUER_CERT_LOCALLY`	The issuer certificate of a locally found certificate is not found. This usually means that the list of trusted certificates is not complete. For example, this error may be thrown when the self-signed root CA and intermediate CA are both missing from the list of trusted certificates.
`UNABLE_TO_VERIFY_LEAF_SIGNATURE`	No signatures are verified because the certificate chain contains only one certificate, which is not self-signed, and the issuer is not trusted.
