Internal Server Error

Type https://defra.github.io/digital-waste-tracking-api-site/preview/problems/internal-server-error
Title Internal Server Error
Status 500

Something went wrong on our side and the request could not be completed. The problem is not caused by your request.

When this happens

An unexpected error happened while the request was being processed, for example a database was temporarily unavailable.

These responses do not include a detail member, so that internal information is not exposed.

Example

{
  "type": "https://defra.github.io/digital-waste-tracking-api-site/preview/problems/internal-server-error",
  "title": "Internal Server Error",
  "instance": "/beta-1/deliveries",
  "requestId": "4f6c1f0e9a3b4c2d8e7f6a5b4c3d2e1f"
}

How to fix it

  • Wait a short time, then send the request again. Wait longer after each failed attempt.
  • If the problem continues, contact us and include the requestId and the time of the request.
