AccessControl policy

This section describes the fault codes and error messages that are returned and fault variables that are set by Edge when this policy triggers an error. This information is important to know if you are developing fault rules to handle faults. To learn more, see What you need to know about policy errors and Handling faults.

Runtime errors

These errors can occur when the policy executes.

Fault code	HTTP status	Cause	Fix
accesscontrol.IPDeniedAccess	403	The client IP address, or an IP address passed in the API request, matches an IP address specified in the <SourceAddress> element within the <MatchRule> element of the Access Control Policy, and the action attribute of the <MatchRule> element is set to DENY.	build

Fault variables

These variables are set when a runtime error occurs. For more information, see Variables specific to policy errors.

Variables	Where	Example
fault.name="fault_name"	fault_name is the name of the fault, as listed in the Runtime errors table above. The fault name is the last part of the fault code.	fault.name Matches "IPDeniedAccess"
acl.policy_name.failed	policy_name is the user-specified name of the policy that threw the fault.	acl.AC-AllowAccess.failed = true

Example fault response

{
   "fault":{
     "faultstring":"Access Denied for client ip : 52.211.243.3"
      "detail":{
         "errorcode":"accesscontrol.IPDeniedAccess"
      }
   }
}

Example fault rule

<FaultRule name="IPDeniedAccess">
    <Step>
        <Name>AM-IPDeniedAccess</Name>
        <Condition>(fault.name Matches "IPDeniedAccess") </Condition>
    </Step>
    <Condition>(acl.failed = true) </Condition>
</FaultRule>

AccessEntity policy

For related information, see What you need to know about policy errors and Handling faults.

Runtime errors

None.

Deployment errors

Error name	Fault string	HTTP status	Occurs when
InvalidEntityType	Invalid type [entity_type] in ACCESSENTITYStepDefinition [policy_name]	N/A	The entity type used must be one of the supported types.

AssignMessage policy

This section describes the fault codes and error messages that are returned and fault variables that are set by Edge when this policy triggers an error. This information is important to know if you are developing fault rules to handle faults. To learn more, see What you need to know about policy errors and Handling faults.

Runtime errors

These errors can occur when the policy executes.

Fault code	HTTP status	Cause	Fix

steps.assignmessage.VariableOfNonMsgType	500	This error occurs if the source attribute in the <Copy> element is set to a variable which is not of type message. Message type variables represent entire HTTP requests and responses. The built-in Edge flow variables request, response, and message are of type message. To learn more about message variables, see the Variables reference.	build
steps.assignmessage.UnresolvedVariable	500	This error occurs if a variable specified in the Assign Message policy is either: out of scope (not available in the specific flow where the policy is being executed) or can't be resolved (is not defined)	build

Deployment errors

These errors can occur when you deploy a proxy containing this policy.

Error name	Cause	Fix
InvalidIndex	If the index specified in the <Copy> and/or <Remove> elements of the Assign Message policy is 0 or a negative number, then deployment of the API Proxy fails.	build
InvalidVariableName	If the child element <Name> is empty or not specified in the <AssignVariable> element, then the deployment of the API proxy fails because there is no valid variable name to which to assign a value. A valid variable name is required.	build

StatisticsCollector policy

This section describes the error messages and flow variables that are set when this policy triggers an error. This information is important to know if you are developing fault rules for a proxy. To learn more, see What you need to know about policy errors and Handling faults.

Runtime errors

None.

Deployment errors

Error name	Cause	Fix
UnsupportedDatatype	If the type of the variable specified by the ref attribute in the <Statistic> element of the Statistics Collector policy is unsupported, then the deployment of the API proxy fails. The supported data types are string, integer, float, long, double, and boolean.	build
InvalidName	If the name used to reference the data collected for the specified variable defined within the <Statistic> element of the Statistics Collector policy conflicts with a system-defined variable, then the deployment of the API proxy fails. Some of the known system-defined variables are organization and environment.	build
DatatypeMissing	If the type of the variable specified by the ref attribute in the <Statistic> element of the Statistics Collector policy is missing, then the deployment of the API proxy fails.	build

Fault variables

None.

VerifyAPIKey policy

This section describes the fault codes and error messages that are returned and fault variables that are set by Edge when this policy triggers an error. This information is important to know if you are developing fault rules to handle faults. To learn more, see What you need to know about policy errors and Handling faults.

Runtime errors

These errors can occur when the policy executes.

Fault code	HTTP status	Cause
keymanagement.service.CompanyStatusNotActive	401	The Company associated with the Developer App that has the API key you are using has an inactive status. When a Company's status is set to inactive, you cannot access the developers or apps associated with that Company. An org admin can change a Company's status using the management API. See Set the Status of a Company.
keymanagement.service.DeveloperStatusNotActive	401	The developer who created the Developer App that has the API key you are using has an inactive status. When an App Developer's status is set to inactive, any Developer Apps created by that developer are deactivated. An admin user with appropriate permissions (such as Organization Administrator) can change a developer's status in the following ways: Management API: Set Developer Status Management UI: In Register app developers, see the instructions for deactivating (and activating) a developer.
keymanagement.service.invalid_client-app_not_approved	401	The Developer App associated with the API key is revoked. A revoked app cannot access any API products and cannot invoke any API managed by Apigee Edge. An org admin can change the status of a Developer App using the management API. See Approve or Revoke Developer App.
oauth.v2.FailedToResolveAPIKey	401	The policy expects to find the API key in a variable that is specified in the policy's <APIKey> element. This error arises when the expected variable does not exist (it cannot be resolved).
oauth.v2.InvalidApiKey	401	An API key was received by Edge, but it is invalid. When Edge looks up the key in its database, it must exactly match the on that was sent in the request. If the API worked previously, make sure the key was not regenerated. If the key was regenerated, you will see this error if you try to use the old key. For details, see Register apps and manage API keys.
oauth.v2.InvalidApiKeyForGivenResource	401	An API key was received by Edge, and it is valid; however, it does not match an approved key in the Developer App associated with your API proxy through a Product.

Deployment errors

These errors can occur when you deploy a proxy containing this policy.

Error name	Cause
SpecifyValueOrRefApiKey	The <APIKey> element does not have a value or key specified.

XMLThreatProtection policy

This section describes the fault codes and error messages that are returned and fault variables that are set by Edge when this policy triggers an error. This information is important to know if you are developing fault rules to handle faults. To learn more, see What you need to know about policy errors and Handling faults.

Runtime errors

These errors can occur when the policy executes.

Fault code	HTTP status	Cause	Fix
steps.xmlthreatprotection.ExecutionFailed	500	The XMLThreatProtection policy can throw many different types of ExecutionFailed errors. Most of these errors occur when a specific threshold set in the policy is exceeded. These types of errors include: element name length, child count, node depth, attribute count, attribute name length, and many others. You can see the complete list in the XMLThreatProtection policy runtime error troubleshooting topic.	build

steps.xmlthreatprotection.NonMessageVariable	500	This error occurs if the <Source> element is set to a variable which is not of type message.	build

Notes:

• The error name ExecutionFailed is the default error name and will be returned regardless of the type of error detected; however, this default can be changed by setting an organization-level property. When this property is set, the error name will reflect the actual error. For example, "TextExceeded" or "AttrValueExceeded". See Usage Notes for details.
• The 500 HTTP status is the default; however, the HTTP Status can be changed to 400 for request flow faults by setting an organization-level property. See Usage Notes for details.
