PHP API Exceptions Truncated

EHowey — Tue, 30 Aug 2022 17:24:52 GMT

When there's an instance of a property value being invalid, the exception in the PHP API is truncated. See an example below:

[400] Client error: `POST https://api.hubapi.com/crm/v3/objects/contacts?hapikey=<redacted>` resulted in a `400 Bad Request` response: {"status":"error","message":"Property values were not valid: [{\"isValid\":false,\"message\":\"Email address 69joeblow@ (truncated...)

How do I get the API to show the full error on exceptions so I can debug what went wrong with the request?

Hi, not seen this before what is the value of this PHP setting?

https://www.php.net/manual/en/errorfunc.configuration.php#ini.log-errors-max-len

Maybe increase that?

We're about to look into the whole hubspot API keys to private apps this week, are you aware of this change?

Ah i think this is actually owing to how guzzle (one of the php packages the API uses).

Similar issue with a different API, hope this helps:

The Guzzle library likes to truncate the error response by default.

You can use its accessors to fetch the full response body, as in this forum discussion:

Here is something I have used with the hubspot api:

try { $hubspot_api_response = $hubspot_api_deal_helper->basicApi()->create($new_deal_properties); if ($hubspot_api_response) { $result['success'] = true; $result['hubspot_deal_id'] = $hubspot_api_response->getId(); } } catch (\HubSpot\Client\Crm\Deals\ApiException $e) { $result['success'] = false; $result['messages'][] = $e->getResponseBody(); }
