API

not_found

HTTP 404. Not found

What it means

No such resource, or it is not visible to you.

What to do

Check the id or owner/slug. Private resources that you may not see look exactly like missing ones. Items that were retracted are hidden from everyone but their owner.

Retrying

Do not retry the same request. Change it first.

Example

json

{
  "type": "https://reuseforge.com/docs/api/errors/not_found",
  "title": "Not found",
  "status": 404,
  "detail": "No such item.",
  "instance": "/api/v1/items/acme/invoice-extractor",
  "code": "not_found",
  "request_id": "req_c4v8n2m6x1z3"
}

Every error is application/problem+json (RFC 9457). Branch on code, show detail to people and quote request_id when you ask for help. See the error catalogue.
