API → Errors
KittyCAD uses conventional HTTP response codes to indicate the success or failure of an API request. In general: Codes in the 2xx
range indicate success. Codes in the 4xx
range indicate an error that failed given the information provided (e.g., a required parameter was omitted, etc.). Codes in the 5xx
range indicate an error with KittyCAD's servers (these are rare).
