    "type_documentation": "https://developers.invers.com/problems/mfa/missing-code",
    "title": "'X-INVERS-MFA-Code' header missing",

}

Meaning

This problem type occurs if you trying to access a route which is secured by Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) without providing the header ‘X-INVERS-MFA-Code’.

Details

• Use the error response’s type property to handle specific errors and exception handling within your application. It’s comparable to an error code.
• The detail property contains additional, more human-readable information about the problem or error. This is explanatory text and you should not have any exception handling and error handling code depend on it, as it may change.

Detail examples

The following examples are typical texts which you might receive in the error response’s detail property. Note that it is not a complete list of all possible cases. Therefore expect to receive error responses with a detail property value not listed below.

Action is secured with MFA. Please provide ‘X-INVERS-MFA-Code’ header.

You trying to access a route which is secured by MFA verification with no ‘X-INVERS-MFA-Code’ header.

Possible solutions:

• Make sure to provide the ‘X-INVERS-MFA-Code’ header in the request. Example header: ‘X-INVERS-MFA-Code’: ‘email 123456’
