Error Responses

When the viagogo API returns error messages, it includes a specific error code and possibly a localized error message that can be displayed to a user.

An error might look like this:

{
  "code": "validation_failed",
  "message": null,
  "errors": {
    "seller_listing.ticket_price": [
      "You must provide either 'ticket_price' or 'ticket_proceeds'"
    ]
  }
}
