This section shows you how to handle various kinds of errors the Fast Purge API generates and lists the range of HTTP status codes along with their likely causes.

If an error occurs, this API responds with JSON objects, identified with the application/api problem+json content type, that provide information you can use to debug the problem. If any object you specify fails to purge, the entire request fails.

This example shows an error response for a request processed by Fast Purge.
