TheStatustype defines a logical error model that is suitable for different programming environments, including REST APIs and RPC APIs. It is used bygRPC. EachStatusmessage contains three pieces of data: error code, error message, and error details.
You can find out more about this error model and how to work with it in theAPI Design Guide.
Fields
code
int32
The status code, which should be an enum value ofgoogle.rpc.Code.
message
string
A developer-facing error message, which should be in English. Any user-facing error message should be localized and sent in thegoogle.rpc.Status.detailsfield, or localized by the client.
