Troubleshooting
Learn how to resolve the most common problems people encounter in the REST API.
If you're encountering some oddities in the API, here's a list of resolutions to some of the problems you may be experiencing. If you have any problems or requests, please contact TextMaster support.
Most API calls accessing a list of resources (e.g., abilities, projects, documents, etc.) support pagination. If you're making requests and receiving an incomplete set of results, you're probably only seeing the first page. You'll need to request the remaining pages in order to get more results.
When exchanging a code for an access token, additional errors can occur. The format of these error responses is determined by the
Accept header you pass.The examples below only show JSON responses.
If the
client_id and or client_secret you pass are incorrect you will receive this error response:{
"error": "invalid_client",
"error_description": "Client authentication failed due to unknown client, no client authentication included, or unsupported authentication method."
}
To solve this error, make sure you have the correct credentials for your OAuth App. Double check the
client_id and client_secret to make sure they are correct and being passed correctly to TextMaster.If you provide a
redirect_uri that doesn't match what you've registered with your OAuth App, you'll receive this error message:{
"error": "invalid_grant",
"error_description": "The provided authorization grant is invalid, expired, revoked, does not match the redirection URI used in the authorization request, or was issued to another client."
}
To correct this error, provide the same callback URL as registered with your application.
If the verification code you pass is incorrect, expired, or doesn't match what you received in the first request for authorization you will receive this error:
{
"error": "invalid_grant",
"error_description": "The provided authorization grant is invalid, expired, revoked, does not match the redirection URI used in the authorization request, or was issued to another client."
}
If the refresh token you pass is incorrect, expired, or doesn't match what you received in access token request you will receive this error:
{
"error": "invalid_grant",
"error_description": "The provided authorization grant is invalid, expired, revoked, does not match the redirection URI used in the authorization request, or was issued to another client."
}
If TextMaster takes more than 30 seconds to process an API request, TextMaster will terminate the request and you will receive a timeout response. Make sure to use async endpoints when available to overcome this issue.
