API Troubleshooting

The API can return a number of error messages if your calls are unsuccessful, below is a list of the errors and how you can resolve the issue. 

  • Your authentication credentials are invalid
    This indicates that you have not given the correct username/password to access the API from your account. Please ensure you use your Repricer Admin user's login credentials.

  • The API is limited to clients in trial or paying
    This indicates that you do not have access to the API. The API is limited to Ultimate and Extreme clients.

  • Missing mandatory header column
    The file format supplied through the API should be the same as you would use via the import screen. This error indicates the file format is incorrect and you should review it.

    This indicates that you have made too many requests to the API. You can try again later and slow down your uploads or downloads to avoid this in the future.
