In case API requests are unsuccessful, STATcubeR will throw errors
to summarize the httr error type and its meaning.
Requests are considered unsuccessful if one of the following applies
The response returns
TRUEforhttr::http_error().The response is not of type
"application/json"
In some cases it is useful to get direct access to a faulty response object.
For that purpose, it is possible to use sc_last_error() which will provide
the httr response object for the last unsuccessful request.
Value
The return value from httr::GET() or httr::POST().
Functions
sc_last_error_parsed(): returns the last error as a list containing the response content and the response status
Examples
try(sc_table_saved("invalid_id"))
#> Error : Client error: (400) Bad Request
#> {
#> "message": "The requested TXD 'str:table:invalid_id' could not be found for the current user.",
#> "errorType": "TXD_NOT_FOUND",
#> "component": "str:table:invalid_id"
#> }
#> Run `sc_last_error()` or read the online documentation for more details
last_error <- sc_last_error()
httr::content(last_error)
#> $message
#> [1] "The requested TXD 'str:table:invalid_id' could not be found for the current user."

#> $errorType
#> [1] "TXD_NOT_FOUND"
