# Status codes and their use in gRPC
gRPC uses a set of well defined status codes as part of the RPC API. All
RPCs started at a client return a `status` object composed of an integer
`code` and a string `message`. The server-side can choose the status it
returns for a given RPC.
The gRPC client and server-side implementations may also generate and
return `status` on their own when errors happen. Only a subset of
the pre-defined status codes are generated by the gRPC libraries. This
allows applications to be sure that any other code it sees was actually
returned by the application (although it is also possible for the
server-side to return one of the codes generated by the gRPC libraries).
The following table lists the codes that may be returned by the gRPC
libraries (on either the client-side or server-side) and summarizes the
situations in which they are generated.
| Case | Code | Generated at Client or Server |
| ------------- |:-------------| :-----:|
| Client Application cancelled the request | CANCELLED | Both |
| Deadline expires before server returns status | DEADLINE_EXCEEDED | Both |
| Method not found at server | UNIMPLEMENTED | Server|
| Server shutting down | UNAVAILABLE | Server|
| Server side application throws an exception (or does something other than returning a Status code to terminate an RPC) | UNKNOWN | Server|
| No response received before Deadline expires. This may occur either when the client is unable to send the request to the server or when the server fails to respond in time. | DEADLINE_EXCEEDED | Both|
| Some data transmitted (e.g., request metadata written to TCP connection) before connection breaks | UNAVAILABLE | Client |
| Could not decompress, but compression algorithm supported (Client -> Server) | INTERNAL | Server |
| Could not decompress, but compression algorithm supported (Server -> Client) | INTERNAL | Client |
| Compression mechanism used by client not supported at server | UNIMPLEMENTED | Server |
| Server temporarily out of resources (e.g., Flow-control resource limits reached) | RESOURCE_EXHAUSTED | Server|
| Client does not have enough memory to hold the server response | RESOURCE_EXHAUSTED | Client |
| Flow-control protocol violation | INTERNAL | Both |
| Error parsing returned status | UNKNOWN | Client |
| Incorrect Auth metadata ( Credentials failed to get metadata, Incompatible credentials set on channel and call, Invalid host set in `:authority` metadata, etc.) | UNAUTHENTICATED | Both |
| Request cardinality violation (method requires exactly one request but client sent some other number of requests) | UNIMPLEMENTED | Server|
| Response cardinality violation (method requires exactly one response but server sent some other number of responses) | UNIMPLEMENTED | Client|
| Error parsing response proto | INTERNAL | Client|
| Error parsing request proto | INTERNAL | Server|
| Sent or received message was larger than configured limit | RESOURCE_EXHAUSTED | Both |
The following status codes are never generated by the library:
- INVALID_ARGUMENT
- NOT_FOUND
- ALREADY_EXISTS
- FAILED_PRECONDITION
- ABORTED
- OUT_OF_RANGE
- DATA_LOSS
