Class DS.UnauthorizedError

Defined in: addon/-private/adapters/errors.js:218

Module: ember-data

A DS.UnauthorizedError equates to a HTTP 401 Unauthorized response status. It is used by an adapter to signal that a request to the external API was rejected because authorization is required and has failed or has not yet been provided.

An example use case would be to redirect the user to a log in route if a request is unauthorized:

app/routes/application.js

import Route from '@ember/routing/route';
import DS from 'ember-data';

const { UnauthorizedError } = DS;

export default Route.extend({
  actions: {
    error(error, transition) {
      if (error instanceof UnauthorizedError) {
        // go to the sign in route
        this.transitionTo('login');
        return;
      }

      // ...other error handling logic
    }
  }
});
