For example, to change the message type of authorization errors, open the <API-M_HOME>/repository/deployment/server/synapse-configs/default/sequences/_auth_failure_handler.xml  file and change  and change  application/xml to something like  application/json .

In addition to the above error codes, we have engaged Synapse-level error codes to the default fault sequence and custom fault sequences (e.g., _token_fault_.xml ) of the API Manager. For information, see  Error Handling  in WSO2 Enterprise Integrator (WSO2 EI) documentation.

If the HTTP PassThrough transport is used, and a connection-level error occurs, the error code is calculated using the following equation:

Code Block
Error code = Base error code + Protocol State


There is a state machine in the transport sender side, where the protocol state changes according to the phase of the message.

Following are the possible protocol states and the description for each:

...

These Transport error codes are used in Advanced Configurations of Endpoints.

Custom error messages

To send a custom message with a custom HTTP status code, you execute an additional sequence that can generate a new error message. You then override the message body, HTTP status code and other values.

The following steps demonstrate how demonstrate how to override a throttled-out message's HTTP status code as a custom error message:

  1. Start the WSO2 API Manager.

  2. Go to <API-M_HOME> /repository/deployment/server/synapse-configs/default/sequences directory and create the file convert.xml as follows.

    Code Block
    languagexml
    <sequence xmlns="http://ws.apache.org/ns/synapse" name="convert">
        <payloadFactory media-type="xml">
            <format>
                <am:fault xmlns:am="http://wso2.org/apimanager">
                    <am:code>$1</am:code>
                    <am:type>Status report</am:type>
                    <am:message>Runtime Error</am:message>
                    <am:description>$2</am:description>
                </am:fault>
            </format>
            <args>
                <arg evaluator="xml" expression="$ctx:ERROR_CODE"/>
                <arg evaluator="xml" expression="$ctx:ERROR_MESSAGE"/>
            </args>
        </payloadFactory>
        <property name="RESPONSE" value="true"/>
        <header name="To" action="remove"/>
        <property name="HTTP_SC" value="555" scope="axis2"/>
        <property name="NO_ENTITY_BODY" scope="axis2" action="remove"/>
        <property name="ContentType" scope="axis2" action="remove"/>
        <property name="Authorization" scope="transport" action="remove"/>
        <property name="Access-Control-Allow-Origin" value="*" scope="transport"/>
        <property name="Host" scope="transport" action="remove"/>
        <property name="Accept" scope="transport" action="remove"/>
        <property name="X-JWT-Assertion" scope="transport" action="remove"/>
        <property name="messageType" value="application/json" scope="axis2"/>
        <send/>
    </sequence>
    Tip

    Alternatively, you can use the Source View of the API-M Management Console as follows to edit the synapse configuration:

    • Sign in to the Management Console. (https://<Server Host>:9443/carbon).
    • Go to Manager -> Source View.
    • Copy the content of the sequence in convert.xml, paste it as a new sequence in the source view and update it.
  3. Check the terminal logs to see whether there are issues in the deployment. 
    If the deployment is successful, you see a message similar to the following in the system logs:

    Code Block
    INFO - SequenceDeployer Sequence named 'convert' has been deployed from file : <API-M_HOME>/repository/deployment/server/synapse-configs/default/sequences/convert.xml
  4. Include the sequence that you just deployed in a sequence of your choice.
    For this example, let's add this custom sequence in the _auth_failure_handler_ sequence.

    Code Block
    <sequence name="_auth_failure_handler_" xmlns="http://ws.apache.org/ns/synapse">
        ...
        <sequence key="convert"/>
        <drop/>
    </sequence>
  5. Check the terminal and see whether there are any errors with the _auth_failure_handler_ sequence deployment.
    If the deployment is successful, you see a message similar to the following in the system logs:

    Code Block
    INFO - SequenceDeployer Sequence: _auth_failure_handler_ has been updated from the file: <API-M_HOME>/repository/deployment/server/synapse-configs/default/sequences/_auth_failure_handler_.xml
  6. Invoke the API with the respective criteria in order to trigger the sequence. 
    In this example, let's view the menu on the PizzaShack API and invoke the API with an incorrect token.

    Localtabgroup
    Localtab
    activetrue
    idformat-menu
    titleFormat
    Code Block
    curl -v -H "Authorization: Bearer <Access_Token>" http://localhost:8280/<API_name>/<version>/<context>
    Localtab
    idexample-menu
    titleExample
    Code Block
    curl -k -v -X GET "https://localhost:8243/pizzashack/1.0.0/menu" -H "accept: application/json" -H "Authorization: Bearer fb119e84-9542-3194-93dc-1ddddaaa1111"

main.xmlThis sequence is called when the endpoint being called does not exist
_auth_failure_handler.xmlThis sequence is called when an API authentication error is encountered
_production_key_error.xmlThis sequence is called when a Production key is used to invoke an API that does not have a Production endpoint defined
_sandbox_key_error.xmlThis sequence is called when a Sandbox key is used to invoke an API that does not have a Sandbox endpoint defined
_throttle_out_handler.xmlThis sequence is called when a given request to an API gets throttled out
_token_fault.xmlThis sequence is called when there is an error in invoking the token API
_resource_mismatch_handler.xmlThis sequence is called when a matching resource cannot be found by the gateway to the corresponding resource being invoked
