Errors

For information about the errors that are common to all actions, see Common Errors.

AccessDeniedException

You don't have sufficient access to perform this action.

HTTP Status Code: 400

ConflictException

The request failed because another request to modify a resource occurred at the same.

HTTP Status Code: 400

InternalServerException

The request failed because of an internal error. Try your request again later

HTTP Status Code: 500

ResourceNotFoundException

The request failed because it references a resource that doesn't exist.

HTTP Status Code: 400

ThrottlingException

The request failed because it exceeded a throttling quota.

HTTP Status Code: 400

ValidationException

The request failed because one or more input parameters don't satisfy their constraint requirements. The output is provided as a list of fields and a reason for each field that isn't valid.

The possible reasons include the following:

UnrecognizedEntityType

The policy includes an entity type that isn't found in the schema.
UnrecognizedActionId

The policy includes an action id that isn't found in the schema.
InvalidActionApplication

The policy includes an action that, according to the schema, doesn't support the specified principal and resource.
UnexpectedType

The policy included an operand that isn't a valid type for the specified operation.
IncompatibleTypes

The types of elements included in a set, or the types of expressions used in an if...then...else clause aren't compatible in this context.
MissingAttribute

The policy attempts to access a record or entity attribute that isn't specified in the schema. Test for the existence of the attribute first before attempting to access its value. For more information, see the has (presence of attribute test) operator in the Cedar Policy Language Guide.
UnsafeOptionalAttributeAccess

The policy attempts to access a record or entity attribute that is optional and isn't guaranteed to be present. Test for the existence of the attribute first before attempting to access its value. For more information, see the has (presence of attribute test) operator in the Cedar Policy Language Guide.
ImpossiblePolicy

Cedar has determined that a policy condition always evaluates to false. If the policy is always false, it can never apply to any query, and so it can never affect an authorization decision.
WrongNumberArguments

The policy references an extension type with the wrong number of arguments.
FunctionArgumentValidationError

Cedar couldn't parse the argument passed to an extension type. For example, a string that is to be parsed as an IPv4 address can contain only digits and the period character.

HTTP Status Code: 400
