## Errors


For information about the errors that are common to all actions, see [Common Error Types](CommonErrors.md).

 ** AccessDeniedException **   
You do not have sufficient access to perform this action.    
 ** Reason **   
Indicates the reason for an access denial when returned by KMS while accessing a Customer Managed KMS key. For non-KMS access-denied errors, this field is not included.  
 ** RequestId **   
The identifier for each request. This value is a globally unique ID that is generated by the identity store service for each sent request, and is then returned inside the exception if the request fails.
HTTP Status Code: 400

 ** ConflictException **   
This request cannot be completed for one of the following reasons:  
+ Performing the requested operation would violate an existing uniqueness claim in the identity store. Resolve the conflict before retrying this request.
+ The requested resource was being concurrently modified by another request.  
 ** Reason **   
Indicates the reason for a conflict error when the service is unable to access a Customer Managed KMS key. For non-KMS permission errors, this field is not included.  
 ** RequestId **   
The identifier for each request. This value is a globally unique ID that is generated by the identity store service for each sent request, and is then returned inside the exception if the request fails.
HTTP Status Code: 400

 ** InternalServerException **   
The request processing has failed because of an unknown error, exception or failure with an internal server.    
 ** RequestId **   
The identifier for each request. This value is a globally unique ID that is generated by the identity store service for each sent request, and is then returned inside the exception if the request fails.  
 ** RetryAfterSeconds **   
The number of seconds to wait before retrying the next request.
HTTP Status Code: 500

 ** ResourceNotFoundException **   
Indicates that a requested resource is not found.    
 ** Reason **   
Indicates the reason for a resource not found error when the service is unable to access a Customer Managed KMS key. For non-KMS permission errors, this field is not included.  
 ** RequestId **   
The identifier for each request. This value is a globally unique ID that is generated by the identity store service for each sent request, and is then returned inside the exception if the request fails.  
 ** ResourceId **   
The identifier for a resource in the identity store that can be used as `UserId` or `GroupId`. The format for `ResourceId` is either `UUID` or `1234567890-UUID`, where `UUID` is a randomly generated value for each resource when it is created and `1234567890` represents the ` IdentityStoreId` string value. In the case that the identity store is migrated from a legacy SSO identity store, the `ResourceId` for that identity store will be in the format of `UUID`. Otherwise, it will be in the `1234567890-UUID` format.  
 ** ResourceType **   
An enum object indicating the type of resource in the identity store service. Valid values include USER, GROUP, and IDENTITY\$1STORE.
HTTP Status Code: 400

 ** ServiceQuotaExceededException **   
The request would cause the number of users or groups in the identity store to exceed the maximum allowed.    
 ** RequestId **   
The identifier for each request. This value is a globally unique ID that is generated by the identity store service for each sent request, and is then returned inside the exception if the request fails.
HTTP Status Code: 400

 ** ThrottlingException **   
Indicates that the principal has crossed the throttling limits of the API operations.    
 ** Reason **   
Indicates the reason for the throttling error when the service is unable to access a Customer Managed KMS key. For non-KMS permission errors, this field is not included.
