Outputs

Successful Response

On a successful submission API returns 201 status code and the object containing assigned package ID. This package Id can later be used to download the package.

Error Response

Error situations are reported back by this API through the standard error response.

Additional specialized error messages can be returned:

HTTP Status Code Error Code Description
400 OperationExceedsLimit Returned when caller has submitted query parameters so broad that resulting data set would exceed pre-configured size. In this case caller system should adjust the query parameters by restricting data interval to retrieve less objects. Error parameter in body of the message includes the count of documents that would be matching the current request and system limit.
400 BadArgument Returned when supplied parameter values are not correct format and also when type full is used for CSV format
403 Forbidden Returned when caller of the endpoint is trying to request documents package while caller profile has ‘B2B Deny ERP Document Retrieval’ tag assigned to it by ETA Admin.

Additional considerations

For the documents received by calling taxpayer system does not include documents in status invalid or submitted into the package prepared.

Before accepting request and issuing package ID system validates the count of documents to be extracted and if it exceeds pre-configured throttling thresholds, request is rejected by asking submitter to limit the request via date period or other parameters.
