Error types, codes, and objects
Learn about error types, codes, and objects.
When a DigitalRiver.js detects an error with an element, it returns an error object with the change event. This object will contain a type, code, and message.
Change Event Error object
{
"type": "validation_error",
"code": "invalid_card_number",
"message": "Your card number is invalid."
}
DigitalRiver.js returns this error object within the createSource method if an error occurs with the tokenization request. This object will contain a type and an array of messages that will explain the error in detail.

"message": "'' is not a valid owner.firstname."
},

"message": "currency 'xyz' is not supported."
