The Cloud API is built on the Graph API, so if you are unfamiliar with handling Graph API error responses, see Graph API's error handling documentation.
In general, we recommend that you build your app's error handling logic around code values and details payload properties. These properties and their values are more indicative of the underlying error.
Code titles, which do not have a dedicated property in API error response payloads, are included as part of the message value. However, we recommend that you do not rely on titles for your error handling logic as titles will eventually be deprecated.
