# Troubleshooting and error handling

The Make API uses standard HTTP error codes in combination with custom Make error codes.

In general:

* a response status code `2xx` means succesfull request
* a response status code `4xx` means error on the client side
* a response status code `5xx` means error on the server side (internal error in Make)
