Additonal Errors

When errors occur (typically, 400 Bad Request), you’ll find them in the header with this name: X-DirectScale-Message.

X-DirectScale-RequestId: ecf80f16-3556-4c0e-a063-4d67f0f50bf1
X-DirectScale-Message: Item with Id 34 not found for Currency usd, Language en, PriceGroup 2, Store 2.

Although these errors can detail what went wrong, you'll often get an "Object Reference" error. When that happens, it’s most likely due to incoming message formatting. Sometimes it’s an issue in configuration or a bug.
