HTTP API errors

Common HTTP error codes returned by the commercetools Composable Commerce APIs and their meaning.

Error responses have the same overall structure across the different Composable Commerce APIs. General errors, such as InvalidJsonInput or ConcurrentModification are returned across all APIs.
