Errors

Status Code When
404 plugixa_car_rental_not_found No vehicle category with that id, or it is in the trash.
422 plugixa_car_rental_missing_name name is missing or blank.
422 plugixa_car_rental_invalid_choice status is not published or unpublished. data.allowed lists the accepted values.
422 plugixa_car_rental_not_a_number sort_order is not a number.
422 plugixa_car_rental_too_long A text field is longer than its column. data.field names it and data.max gives the limit.
409 plugixa_car_rental_conflict You sent modified_at and the vehicle category has been saved by someone else since. data.expected and data.current carry both values.

Plus the errors every endpoint can return.
