Rest API - Error Handling

A developer sends this Problem Details JSON:

{"type": "not-a-valid-uri", "title": "Error", "status": 400}

What is the issue with this response?

AThe <code>status</code> field must be a string

BThe <code>type</code> field must be a valid URI reference

CThe <code>title</code> field is too short

DThe JSON is missing the <code>instance</code> field

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Validate the type field format
The type field must be a valid URI reference, but "not-a-valid-uri" is not a valid URI.
Step 2: Check other fields
title can be any string, status must be an integer (which it is), and instance is optional.
Final Answer:
type must be a valid URI reference -> Option B
Quick Check:
type = valid URI [OK]

Quick Trick: type must always be a valid URI [OK]
