Responses and Exceptions

All SDK methods return an instance of the APIResponse class.

After a successful API request, the getObject() method returns an instance of the ResponseWrapper (for GET) or the ActionWrapper (for POST, PUT, DELETE).

Whenever the API returns an error response, the getObject() returns an instance of the APIException class.

ResponseWrapper (for GET requests) and ActionWrapper (for POST, PUT, DELETE requests) are the expected objects for Zoho CRM APIs’ responses.

However, some specific operations have different expected objects, such as the following:

  • Operations involving records in Tags
    -RecordActionWrapper

  • For getting Record Count for a specific Tag operation
    -CountWrapper

  • For operations involving BaseCurrency
    -BaseCurrencyActionWrapper

  • For Lead convert operation
    -ConvertActionWrapper

  • For retrieving Deleted records operation
    -DeletedRecordsWrapper

  • For Record image download operation
    -FileBodyWrapper

  • For MassUpdate record operations
    -MassUpdateActionWrapper
    -MassUpdateResponseWrapper

For GET Requests

The getObject() returns an instance of one of the following classes, based on the return type.

  • For application/json responses

    • ResponseWrapper
    • CountWrapper
    • DeletedRecordsWrapper
    • FileBodyWrapper
    • MassUpdateResponseWrapper
    • APIException

  • For File download responses

    • FileBodyWrapper

    • APIException

For POST, PUT, DELETE Requests

  • The getObject() returns an instance of one of the following classes

    • ActionWrapper
    • RecordActionWrapper
    • BaseCurrencyActionWrapper
    • MassUpdateActionWrapper
    • ConvertActionWrapper
    • APIException

These wrapper classes may contain one or an array of instances of the following classes, depending on the response.

  • SuccessResponse Class, if the request was successful.
  • APIException Class, if the request was erroneous.

For example, when you insert two records, and one of them was inserted successfully while the other one failed, the ActionWrapper will contain one instance each of the SuccessResponse and APIException classes.

All other exceptions such as SDK anomalies and other unexpected behaviours are thrown under the SDKException class.
