# Errors summary

> Semantics around error messages that you might stumble upon when working with the Rated API.

Rated API utilizes standard HTTP response codes to communicate the outcome of an API request. It is essential to note that:

* Response codes in the 2xx range signify successful execution of the request.
* Response codes in the 4xx range indicate a client-side error, arising from insufficient or incorrect information provided (e.g., missing required parameters, invalid values types, etc.).
* Response codes in the 5xx range signify a server-side error, indicative of an issue with Rated's servers. These are uncommon.
