Response Messages

The Brainville API will respond to the HTTP POST in the following manner:

Success

HTTP Status 200 (OK) is returned

Failure

Bad XML – If the XML is malformed, or if the data parameter does not contain file data, a HTTP Status 400 (Bad Request) will be returned.

Missing/incorrect data – If the XML is correct, but the data inside it is wrong (for example, a required value is missing, out of range or of the wrong type), a message with HTTP Status 200 (OK) will be returned. The message will begin with “ERROR:”, then followed by a text describing the specific error.

Invalid id - If the id parameter does not specify a valid assignment id, HTTP Status 404 (Not found) will be returned
