503 Service Unavailable

Opensubtitles API
1

I am sending a request to the “default server.”

503 Service Unavailable

{

"message": "Service unavailable"

}

Request Sample: Shell / cURL

What’s going on? What’s going on?

If you are unable to write proper documentation for the API, at least respond on the forum. Or will I have to wait another six months for a response?

could you give any kind of information about the request you are sending ?

errors can occur, what find you missing or confusing about our documentation ?

I am trying to make a request here https://opensubtitles.stoplight.io/docs/opensubtitles-api/
section Download
The token, user agent, and API key are specified. “file_id”: 5748941

If Bearer Auth is selected, I get this

503 Service Unavailable

{

“message”: “Service unavailable”

}

If I use the API key, I get this:

406 Not Acceptable

{

“message”: “Invalid file_id”

}

I also wrote a dart package, and I get the same error 406. The POST request there looks like this

url: https://api.opensubtitles.com/api/v1/download

body: {file_id: 5748941, sub_format: srt}

headers: {Content-Type: application/json, User-Agent: my User-Agent, Accept: application/json, Api-Key: my Api-Key, Authorization: Bearer my token}

The problem is that nowhere is it described what 503 and 406 mean from your server, or there is no adequate response from the server {'error: “bla-bla-bla”}

Why does it work this way? id obtained from api
{id: 5748941, type: subtitle, attributes: {subtitle_id: 5748941, language: en, download_count: 47778, new_download_count: 1102, hearing_impaired: true,.....}

you did a request that gave you a subtitle id, a subtitle can have multiple files, so you can’t query on /download with that ID, you need to lookup for the file_id in the files array
