Anything that happens during a run of DOTS Address Insight that causes it to be unable to finish its normal processing is an error. If an error occurs, one of the following error types will be returned.
Error Types
Type | TypeCode | Billable | Standard Across All Gen2 Web Services |
|---|---|---|---|
Authorization | 1 | No | Yes |
User Input | 2 | No | No |
Service Objects Fatal | 3 | No | Yes |
Error type 1: Authorization
Theses are standard to all Generation 2 DOTS Web Services.
DescCode | Desc |

Error type 2: User Input
.
User Input errors are caused when a user inputs an invalid value or fails to provide a certain input field altogether. If a developer creates a request and mistypes a parameter name, it will probably cause a User Input Error.
DescCode | Desc |
|---|---|
| 1 | You must input a license key in the LicenseKey field. |
| 2 | You must submit at least one input value in addition to your license key. |
Error type 3: Service Objects Fatal
The Desc will always be the same and the DescCode has no meaning. This is standard to all Generation 2 DOTS Web Services. This is a rare error that signals either a bug in the DOTS Address Insight US service, or a Network/Connectivity issue.
DescCode | Desc |
|---|---|
1 | Unhandled error. Please contact Service Objects. |
