Common Errors & Troubleshooting

Response is plain text instead of JSON No Accept header was sent, so the API defaults to text/plain.
Add the header Accept: application/json to your request.
Mixed Content warning The API URL uses HTTP which modern browsers block on HTTPS pages.
Make calls from a server-side script or a local environment rather than a browser page.
404 Not Found The route path or required URL parameter (e.g., :name or :from) is missing.
Check the full list of routes at foaas.com and include all required path segments.
