401

Unauthorized — missing or invalid authentication. Triggered when the Authorization header is absent or the access key (Client ID / Client Secret) is invalid. Returned as a plain-text body, for example missing Authorization request header.

422

Unprocessable entity — the backend could not execute the query. Try adjusting the query, time range, or step and retry. Returned as a Prometheus-style JSON error.

500
