Response receipt

The client platform failed when receiving the response.

PubNubError.Reason CaseDescription
badServerResponseThe URL Loading system received bad data from the server
responseDecodingFailureClient system couldn't parse network response
dataLengthExceedsMaximumThe length of the resource data exceeds the maximum allowed

Response processing

A response was malformed in some way.

PubNubError.Reason CaseDescription
missingCriticalResponseDataRequest or response is nil without an underlying error
unrecognizedStatusCodeAn unrecognized response error code was received and couldn't be categorized
malformedResponseBodyResponse is valid JSON but not formatted as expected

PubNubError.Reason CaseDescription
clientCancelledThe request was cancelled by the application/user without error
sessionDeinitializedThis Session was deinitialized while tasks were still executing
sessionInvalidatedThis Session's underlying URLSession was invalidated

PubNubError.Reason CaseDescription
invalidArgumentsAt least one Request parameter is invalid
invalidCharacterAt least one invalid character in the Request

invalidSubscribeKeyThe PubNub subscribe key used for the request is invalid
invalidPublishKeyThe PubNub publish key used for the request is invalid
maxChannelGroupCountExceededThe maximum number of channel groups has been reached
couldNotParseRequestThe PubNub server was unable to parse the request
requestContainedInvalidJSONThe request contained a malformed JSON payload
serviceUnavailableThe server took longer to respond than the maximum allowed processing time
messageCountExceededMaximumThe number of messages returned exceeded the maximum allowed
badRequestAn unexpected error occurred while processing the request
conflictObject was changed by another request since last retrieval
preconditionFailedRequest payload must be in JSON format
tooManyRequestsYou have exceeded the maximum number of requests per second allowed for your subscriber key
unsupportedTypeYou sent an unsupported object to the server
