Something's not right

client_error

This request couldn't be completed. Check the URL or your request, then try again.

What this means​

The request reached ComputeSphere, but it couldn't be completed and no more specific error code applies, for example a malformed request.

How to fix it​

Check the URL and the request (method, headers and body), then try again.

Retry behavior​

You can try again; if nothing in the request changed, expect the same answer.

How it appears in the response​

ComputeSphere returns errors as RFC 7807 Problem Details. The type field is the docs URL for this page — switch on code in your client.

{
  "type":    "https://docs.computesphere.com/errors/client_error",
  "title":   "Something's not right",
  "status":  400,
  "code":    "client_error",
  "detail":  "This request couldn't be completed. Check the URL or your request, then try again.",
  "instance": "/v2/…",
  "request_id": "f47ac10b-58cc-4372-a567-0e02b2c3d479",
  "trace_id":   null
}

The Content-Type header is application/problem+json. On field-level validation errors a non-empty errors[] array also appears, each entry carrying its own docs_url for the offending field.
