About this guide

This guide enables you to simulate errors that may be thrown in the process of interacting with Demyst and underlying upstream sources. This simulation option will allow you to see what the expected behaviour of an error looks like.

JSON Syntax

Simulation section

• A JSON object from a connector to an error type

Example

"simulation": {  
  "acxiom_place": "upstream_structure",  
  "hazardhub_risks_and_enhanced_property2": "upstream_http"  
}

Per Provider

For each provider in the request, you can simulate an error without having to add simulate option separately. The error in the response will remain the same

• Syntax: A JSON object from error_simulation to an error type within the provider object
• Returns: type and message for the error raised.

Example

"providers": {
  "equifax_austin_tetra_discovery": {
        "error_simulation": "upstream_structure",
        "version": "$latest"
      },
  "acxiom_place": {
    	"error_simulation": "upstream_http",
      "version": "$latest"
  }
}

Error library

Below is a reference of all the errors that can be simulated, along with a brief description of when they might come into play.
