Request Validation Failed on Replit

API returns 400 Bad Request with validation errors. Request payload doesn't match expected format or constraints.

Request validation catches invalid or malformed data before processing.

Error Messages You Might See

400 Bad Requestvalidation failedfield validation error

Common Causes

  1. Missing required fields in request body
  2. Field type mismatch (string instead of number)
  3. Constraint violation (length, pattern, range)
  4. Unknown fields in request (if validation strict)
  5. Date format incorrect

How to Fix It

For Spring Boot, use @Valid with bean validation annotations (@NotNull, @Size, @Email). Check validation error messages in response. Use @JsonIgnoreProperties(ignoreUnknown=false) to reject unknown fields. Test request format with Postman. Return detailed validation error responses to client.
