Updates error codes for the Outbound Setup Intents API Breaking changes Public preview

What’s new

Updates the error codes returned by the Outbound Setup Intents API to use more generic error types instead of credential-type-specific codes. This change replaces several existing error codes with standardised error types:

  • blocked _ payout _ method _ bank _ account , blocked _ payout _ method _ card and blocked _ payout _ method _ crypto _ wallet errors now return blocked _ payout _ method .
  • unsupported _ payout _ method _ bank _ account and unsupported _ payout _ method _ card errors now return unsupported _ payout _ method .
  • invalid _ payout _ method _ bank _ account , invalid _ payout _ method _ card and invalid _ payout _ method _ crypto _ wallet errors now return invalid _ payout _ method .
  • limit _ payout _ method _ bank _ account , limit _ payout _ method _ card and limit _ payout _ method _ crypto _ wallet errors now return limit _ payout _ method .

This standardisation improves the consistency of error handling across different Payout Method types and supports future extensibility when adding new credential types to Payout Methods.

Why is this a breaking change?

This is a breaking change because your integration can rely on the specific error code identifiers that this update replaces. If your code checks for type specific error codes like blocked_payout_method_bank_account, unsupported_payout_method_bank_account, invalid_payout_method_bank_account_ or limit_payout_method_bank_account, those checks no longer work and you must update them to handle the generic error types.

Impact

If your integration handles specific error codes from Outbound Setup Intents endpoints, you need to update your error handling logic to use the generic error types. The error messages and underlying reasons remain the same, but the error code identifiers have changed to be more consistent across different Payout Method types.
