Error codes
As a Filecoin client, you receive unified rejection code when :
- a deal you are trying to place to a storage provider using CIDgravity is rejected (using boost or any clients)
- calling our API to verify miner availability
In this section, we will provide a comprehensive overview of all available return codes. These codes will not change overtime and are designed to give to clients the ability to build automation.
