# Smart Embed Error Handling

<!-- WARNING: THIS FILE WAS AUTOGENERATED! DO NOT EDIT! -->

Zoom Contact Center Smart Embed uses different error handling patterns depending on the type of event.

## Client-side validation errors

The `zcc-error` event fires for client-side validation failures before a request reaches the Smart Embed backend.

```javascript
{
    type: "zcc-error",
    data: {
        code: ERROR_CODE, // e.g., "invalid-input"
        message: ERROR_MESSAGE
    },
};
```

For transfer and conference events, errors are returned on the operation-specific response event, such as `zcc-transfer-engagement-response`, with `status: false` instead of using this generic error event.

## Transfer and conference error handling

Transfer and conference events use a unified error handling pattern. These events include `zcc-transfer-engagement`, `zcc-add-call`, `zcc-complete-transfer`, `zcc-merge-consult`, and `zcc-cancel-consult`.

Unlike client-side validation failures that trigger the generic `zcc-error` event, these events return both success and failure results on the **same response event**, for example `zcc-transfer-engagement-response`.

### Response pattern

Every transfer and conference response event includes a `status` field.

-   **Success** - `status` is `true` with operation-specific fields like `consultState`, `destinationSummary`, `holdState`
-   **Failure**- `status` is `false` with additional `errorCode`, `error`, and `message` fields

### Common response fields

All transfer and conference response events share base fields.
