GeoIP Legacy web service now returns HTTP status codes for errors
June 30, 2026The GeoIP Legacy web service now returns meaningful HTTP status codes for error conditions, so you can act on them in your monitoring or an internal proxy, without parsing the response body:
400 Bad Requestfor a malformed request401 Unauthorizedfor a missing or invalid license key402 Payment Requiredwhen your account is out of queries403 Forbiddenwhen your account does not have permission to use the service5xxfor a server error
The response body and its error-code strings are unchanged. The IP_NOT_FOUND
case continues to return a 200 OK status to avoid breaking existing
integrations.
