Example

Section titled “Example”
HTTP 405 · method_not_allowed
{
  "error": {
    "type": "invalid_request_error",
    "code": "method_not_allowed",
    "message": "DELETE isn't supported on /v1/health. Use GET or HEAD.",
    "param": null,
    "request_id": "req_01j9zr3m5k8q2w7x4t6v0b1c9d",
    "doc_url": "https://docs.deedglass.com/errors/method_not_allowed"
  }
}

The message is for a person and can get more exact over time: branch on type and code, never on the message.
