Error Handling

The SDK provides typed error classes for different scenarios:

import {
  TaboolaError,
  TaboolaAuthError,
  TaboolaValidationError,
  TaboolaNotFoundError,
  TaboolaRateLimitError,
  TaboolaForbiddenError,
} from 'taboola-backstage-sdk';

try {
  await client.campaigns.get('account-id', 'invalid-id');
} catch (error) {
  if (error instanceof TaboolaNotFoundError) {
    console.error('Campaign not found');
  } else if (error instanceof TaboolaAuthError) {
    console.error('Authentication failed');
  } else if (error instanceof TaboolaValidationError) {
    console.error('Validation error:', error.fieldErrors);
  } else if (error instanceof TaboolaRateLimitError) {
    console.error(`Rate limited. Retry after ${error.retryAfter}s`);
  } else if (error instanceof TaboolaForbiddenError) {
    console.error('Access denied');
  } else if (error instanceof TaboolaError) {
    console.error(`API error: ${error.message} (${error.statusCode})`);
  }
}
