Errors

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

AccessDeniedException

You do not have sufficient access to perform this action.

HTTP Status Code: 400

InternalServerException

This exception is thrown when an error occurs in the AWS B2B Data Interchange service.

HTTP Status Code: 500

ResourceNotFoundException

Occurs when the requested resource does not exist, or cannot be found. In some cases, the resource exists in a region other than the region specified in the API call.

HTTP Status Code: 400

ThrottlingException

The request was denied due to throttling: the data speed and rendering may be limited depending on various parameters and conditions.

HTTP Status Code: 400

ValidationException

When you use Transformer APIs, TestConversion, or TestParsing, the service throws a validation exception if a rule is configured incorrectly. For example, a validation exception occurs when:

A rule references an element that doesn't exist in the selected transaction set
An element length rule specifies a minimum length less than 0

Note

If your custom validation rules are configured correctly but the EDI validation fails due to those rules, this is expected behavior and doesn't result in a ValidationException.

For all other API operations, a validation exception occurs when a Trading Partner object can't be validated against a request from another object. This can happen during:

Standard EDI validation
Custom validation rule evaluation, such as when:
- Element lengths don't meet specified constraints
- Code list validations contain invalid codes
- Required elements are missing based on your element requirement rules

HTTP Status Code: 400
