How to manage server API error codes with TypeScript?
Dear PlayFab community,
I'm wondering how to account for potential error codes returned from the server API when developing CloudScript code with TypeScript. For example, I want to capture the InvalidDropTable error code from the GetRandomResultTables() call:
https://api.playfab.com/documentation/server/method/GetRandomResultTables#error-codes
I see in the documentation that the response has a "code" and "status" fields. However, the TypeScript typings do not seem to have those properties defined. Is this an oversight of the typings? Should all *Result types be extending a base Result that has those properties? Is there an example of how I might be able to obtain this error information?
Thanks in advance!

Thanks, that's a fair point - we didn't include that, as failed API calls cause an exception to be thrown in Cloud Script. But if you're using try/catch, you might still want to work with those response values in the script directly. I've opened a work item for the tools team to look at adding that.
