Errors
Describing the general errors that may occur in the system.
General rest error model:
Codes in the 2xx range indicate success. Codes in the 4xx range indicate an error due to a failure in the information provided (e.g., a required parameter was omitted, a charge was failed, etc.). Codes in the 5xx range indicate an error with Stripe's servers (this kind of error is rare).
Some 4xx errors could be handled programmatically (e.g., a card is declined). These errors include an error code that briefly explains the reported error.
Generally, users can interpret these error codes throughout the documents below:
200 - OK
Everything worked as expected.
201 - OK
Everything worked as expected.
401: Unauthorized
The request was unacceptable, often due to missing a required parameter.
403: Forbidden
When a user attempts to perform a task with the right privileges but not possible according to the consistency model of the application.
404 - Bad Request
When the input types or objects are not given properly.
500, 502, 503, 504 - Server Errors
Something went wrong on Stripe's end. (These are rare.)
