Distinguishing between Error responses for Create User API

[Jun]

I am using the following API to create a JIRA user and would like to differentiate between the causes for a HTTP 400 error returned by the API.

According to the documentation, a 400 error is returned by the API when

• The user exists but does not have access to JIRA
• No. of licensed users exceeded
• Request is invalid

The documentation also states that a "schema has not been defined for this response code". Does that mean that there is no response body from the API, from which I can differentiate the different causes for the error?

Hi @Jun 

Along with the code you will usually have message response as well.

Thanks,
