Adding error codes to ApiError
Feature request
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I am building a website with supabase and the errors that is returned from supabase.auth only contains a general error code 400 and a message in english. This makes the different errors hard to distinguish from eachother.
Example:
User tries to create an account but the user is already registered so the error returned from supabase.auth.signUp will be
{
message: "User already registered",
status: 400
}
Describe the solution you'd like
If the error included a specific error code mapped to particular error then providing a custom message would be easy.
Example:
{
message: "User already registered",
status: 400,
errorCode: 1,
}
It would also be really awesome if the error codes was included in the documentation.
Describe alternatives you've considered
I've considered checking the string value returned in the error but if that would change in the future that would in turn break the application.
+1 for this change, as at this time distinguishing between errors (and translating them to different languages), is completely contingent on parsing the message being returned (and if that message one day got changed, it would break whatever logic we've had to build on top of it)
I realize that when a user signs up using an already in use email don't get any error messages, auth.signUp() just returns the user. i think in this case i wanna cath the error and tell the user that email is in use
a User already registered error message would be awesome
I want to alert the user if they need to check their email for the invite link, so error code would be help on signIn here would really help
I strongly support this request!
Error codes would facilitate the creation of dictionary data for translation and help with multilingualization.
I am developing an application for Japanese and currently there is no list of error messages, so I am having a hard time creating dictionary data.
+1 on this. How am I supposed to provide the user additional steps if their login attempt errors because their email hasn't been verified yet, but they can't find the verification code anymore?
Over a year later and this has not been addressed. I thought features like this were standard practice.
no news on this? how people are handling authentication errors and internalization?
Thought this was industry standard and not something to implement upon request. Any developments on this?
This just made ditch supabase Auth for something else.
Its standard practise to return proper errors.
But till now over a year nothing has been done. There is no proper CURL documentation for us to implement the rest Auth into a SDK ourselves.
Even on the little examples, errors are not treated well. this is a no no for me,shows an unserious company in this aspect
Adding stable error keys to the returned JSON would be great (e.g., user.already.registered). That's clearer than abstract error codes ala Oracle.
And the ideal would be using the structure proposed by RFC 7807:
- https://github.com/NationalBankBelgium/REST-API-Design-Guide/wiki/Error-handling-Error-details
- https://github.com/NationalBankBelgium/REST-API-Design-Guide/wiki/Error-handling-Example-with-a-single-error
- https://github.com/NationalBankBelgium/REST-API-Design-Guide/wiki/Error-handling-Example-with-multiple-errors
- https://github.com/NationalBankBelgium/REST-API-Design-Guide/wiki/Error-handling-Example-with-parameters
- https://github.com/NationalBankBelgium/REST-API-Design-Guide/wiki/Error-handling-Example-with-additional-metadata
I ran into the same issue and started collecting possible error messages by going through the GoTrue implementation.
I collect the errors for each endpoint in this Google Sheets doc. It's WIP so everything in this sheet is a little bit messy at the moment.
I also created a npm package that offers an error handler method for each function of GoTrue JS and therefore also Supabase JS.
Thx a lot Joel !

Running into the same issue – would love to have standardized error codes for auth (I'm using supabase.auth.signInWithOtp() specifically). Firebase has a doc about this: https://firebase.google.com/docs/reference/js/v8/firebase.auth.Error
Any progress on this would be great help! Is there a way we can contribute ourselves?
+1, Firebase has these standard error codes and it really is essential if you want to, for example, translate the messages
+1, it's hard to use registration/signin manually with react native development using supabase lib, i am a js/ts library user but i would recommend having code status too...
I have already created feature request since Sept but no one have ever response to it
+1 on this, an error code it would be great to distinguish between errors and then we can make our own internationalization, but using a switch inside an effect its no option for a first class product, if we want to scale to millions we need that feature. By the way all the good vibes to the supabase team, you're making a incredible work, with my team recently started a new project integrating it with next.js 14 and we are amazed.
Over a year later and this has not been addressed. I thought features like this were standard practice.
They have been busy with the unusable AI bs.
It's been two years and still no update?
Really, the lack of support for this is disappointing.
Being able to process errors in order to show users a customized (or localized) message is an essential feature.
@SamiChab @262hz Looks like the PR for this has been merged just recently:
https://github.com/supabase/gotrue/pull/1377
I believe it's in a release candidate at the moment.
It was already merged but i think its's for auth-js only is it different from supabase-js using supabase.auth?
is this only for auth-js ? and supabase-js not included?
const response = await supabase.auth.signInWithPassword({
email: email,
password: password,
})
