Possible errors when requesting an API

When a consumer calls the API you have enabled, several errors can occur.

After enabling an API for a dataset, authorized consumers can start requesting the API. In the Activity tile of the API tab, you can check if the requests failed or were successful. The last 10 errors of the last 24 hours are displayed.
