Invalid Request

Code​

  • code: invalid_request
  • status: 400
  • url: https://developers.glean.com/errors/invalid-request

What It Means​

The request could not be processed because the payload, parameters, or request structure is invalid.

Common Causes​

  • The JSON body is malformed or does not match the endpoint schema.
  • Query parameters or request headers use unsupported values.
  • The request combines fields that cannot be used together.

How To Resolve​

Client Actions​

  • Compare the request against the endpoint documentation and schema.
  • Check the response detail field for request-specific guidance.
  • Remove unsupported fields or combinations before retrying.

Retry Guidance​

Retrying the same request will not help. Retry only after changing the request.
