invalid_code

HTTP status: 401 · Code: invalid_code

The email code is wrong, expired, or used up; ask for a new one after 5 wrong tries.

Why it happens

The email code is wrong, expired, or used up. After 5 wrong tries the code stops working.

How to fix

Let the person type the code again. After 5 wrong tries, or if it expired, ask them to request a new code. See Email codes.

Catch it in your code

Every SDK throws one error type for a failed call. Match on its code, which is always invalid_code for this error, never on the message.

JavaScript and Next.js

import { ErrorCode, OrvanoError } from '@orvano/js'

try {
  // your Orvano call
} catch (error) {
  if (error instanceof OrvanoError && error.code === ErrorCode.invalidCode) {
    // handle invalid_code
  } else {
    throw error
  }
}

Dart and Flutter

import 'package:orvano_flutter/orvano_flutter.dart'; // or orvano_dart on a server

try {
  // your Orvano call
} on OrvanoException catch (error) {
  if (error.code != ErrorCode.invalidCode) rethrow;
  // handle invalid_code
}

.NET

using Orvano;

try
{
    // your Orvano call
}
catch (OrvanoException error) when (error.Code == ErrorCode.InvalidCode)
{
    // handle invalid_code
}

The error also carries the HTTP status (401), a message, and a request ID. Quote the request ID when you report a problem: the server logs it with the failure. See Errors for how errors work in every SDK, or every error code.
