Getting "Bad request" error while using REST POST snap

Question

I am using REST POST snap to connect to an end point. Snap details are shown in the screenshot.
When I execute the snap, it returns the following error:
“status code = 400, reason phrase = Bad Request, refer to the error_entity field in the error view document for more details.”

When I use Postman, it is working fine. I just provide the end point and call it using POST method. The REST API should return something like “email: This field is required…”.
I am expecting the same result when I use REST POST snap. However, the snap is returning “400: bad request” error.

Could you please let me know what the issue could be?

@SGArchitect
Open error view on the Rest Post Snap, and check the “error_entity” field inside the error.
“error_entity” field should contain the specific error message.

Thank you, Spiro.
Error view showed me the details. We can mark this post as resolved.

Hi&nbsp;SpiroTaleski&nbsp;,I have faced the similar issue.My question here is, how can I fetch these error_entity details directly in error pipeline, what is the expression to use to extract themI know below expressions, and these doesn't provide error_entity details&nbsp;

vish_ch&nbsp;You can access the field the same way you access the other fields: $error_entityBut I think that not always that field is a part of the error message, so you should probably check first if the error_ entity field exist or not.&nbsp;
