    Class AbsolutePayError

    Error thrown by every SDK method when the API returns a non-2xx response.

    Carries the platform's problem+json fields so you can branch on the failure without re-parsing the body. The AbsolutePayError.message is the human-readable title (falling back to code/status). Use AbsolutePayError.isAuth and AbsolutePayError.isRateLimited for the common branches.

    try {
    await client.balances.list();
    } catch (err) {
    if (err instanceof AbsolutePayError) {
    if (err.isAuth) console.error("check API key / scopes / signature");
    else if (err.isRateLimited) console.error("slow down");
    else console.error(err.code, err.detail, "request:", err.requestId);
    }
    }

    Constructors

    • Parameters

      • status: number

        HTTP status code of the response.

      • code: string

        Machine-readable error code from the body.

      • title: string

        Short human-readable summary; becomes the Error message.

      • Optionaldetail: string

        Optional longer explanation.

      • OptionalrequestId: string

        Optional server request id for correlation.

      Returns AbsolutePayError

    Properties

    cause?: unknown

    The cause of the error.

    code: string

    Stable machine-readable error code from the response body (e.g. "insufficient_scope"), or "error" if absent.

    detail: string | undefined

    Longer human-readable explanation of what went wrong, when the API provides one.

    message: string
    name: string
    requestId: string | undefined

    Server-assigned request id (from the x-request-id header) — quote it in support tickets.

    stack?: string
    status: number

    HTTP status code of the failed response (e.g. 401, 429, 500).

    stackTraceLimit: number

    The Error.stackTraceLimit property specifies the number of stack frames collected by a stack trace (whether generated by new Error().stack or Error.captureStackTrace(obj)).

    The default value is 10 but may be set to any valid JavaScript number. Changes will affect any stack trace captured after the value has been changed.

    If set to a non-number value, or set to a negative number, stack traces will not capture any frames.

    Accessors

    • get isAuth(): boolean

      true for HTTP 401/403 — an authentication or authorization failure: a bad/missing API key, insufficient scope for the operation, or an invalid request signature. Not retryable without fixing credentials.

      Returns boolean

    • get isRateLimited(): boolean

      true for HTTP 429 (rate limited) — you are sending requests too fast. Back off and retry after a short delay.

      Returns boolean

    Methods

    • Creates a .stack property on targetObject, which when accessed returns a string representing the location in the code at which Error.captureStackTrace() was called.

      const myObject = {};
      Error.captureStackTrace(myObject);
      myObject.stack; // Similar to `new Error().stack`

      The first line of the trace will be prefixed with ${myObject.name}: ${myObject.message}.

      The optional constructorOpt argument accepts a function. If given, all frames above constructorOpt, including constructorOpt, will be omitted from the generated stack trace.

      The constructorOpt argument is useful for hiding implementation details of error generation from the user. For instance:

      function a() {
      b();
      }

      function b() {
      c();
      }

      function c() {
      // Create an error without stack trace to avoid calculating the stack trace twice.
      const { stackTraceLimit } = Error;
      Error.stackTraceLimit = 0;
      const error = new Error();
      Error.stackTraceLimit = stackTraceLimit;

      // Capture the stack trace above function b
      Error.captureStackTrace(error, b); // Neither function c, nor b is included in the stack trace
      throw error;
      }

      a();

      Parameters

      • targetObject: object
      • OptionalconstructorOpt: Function

      Returns void

    • Create .stack property on a target object

      Parameters

      • targetObject: object
      • OptionalconstructorOpt: Function

      Returns void

    • Check if a value is an instance of Error

      Parameters

      • value: unknown

        The value to check

      Returns value is Error

      True if the value is an instance of Error, false otherwise
