Posted on by Rushi Suthar 78

Hello,

I want to add custom error message in API response while after validating value of particular field.


Example:

I have field name 'VoucherNo' with datatype Integer.

Now, I am trying to add JSON response with blank value for 'VoucherNo'.

It is showing me error like: Response status code does not indicate success: 400 (Cannot convert the literal '' to the expected type 'Edm.Int32'.).

Now, Is there any way to change/ return custom Error Message in API response?

Thanks for help in advance.

I have the same question (0)
