Handling Errors
You should handle any error responses and take the appropriate action. An error occurred if:
The response return code is not 200
The JSON response status is error
For example, if Facebook link was removed by your user - they changed their password or removed Ayrshare's access -  the following response would occur when posting with a 400 Bad Request response code.
1
{
2
    "status": "error",
3
    "errors": [
4
        {
5
            "action": "post",
6
            "status": "error",
7
            "code": 161,
8
            "message": "Facebook authorization error. This can occur if your Facebook security changes. Try unlinking and re-linking Facebook or contact us for assistance.",
9
            "platform": "facebook"
10
        }
11
    ],
12
    "postIds": [],
13
    "id": "gh7SyTpeD2CQAMxWk3oh",
14
    "post": "A great Facebook Posts"
15
}

        {

            "code": 138,

            "platform": "instagram"

        }

    ],

    "postIds": [],
