## Errors

| Status | Error | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 404 | Not Found | The requested listing, gallery or agency was not found. On /listing and /agency a 404 is not billable. On /gallery it is an answer rather than an error: the listing has no gallery, so it comes back as a successful empty gallery and bills the one lookup it made. |
| 422 | Validation Error | A public parameter is invalid. This response is not billable. |
| 503 | Service Unavailable | The service could not obtain a complete result. This response is not billable and no credits are charged. |
