Why 415 is special

415 is a content-type mismatch, not a content problem. Sending JSON to an endpoint expecting form encoding gets a 415 regardless of whether the JSON is valid, which is why it is one of the most common early errors when integrating against an unfamiliar API.

Not just a mathematical number

415is also used in ways where ordinary arithmetic doesn't apply — each listed below with what genuinely does and doesn't follow from it.

  • Mathematical number

    A genuine quantity — its mathematical properties (prime, square, factors, and so on) are real facts about it.

    A genuine quantity that ordinary arithmetic applies to — it can be prime, even, a perfect square, added to another number meaningfully, and so on.

  • Code

    Also used as a code — HTTP status codes.

    An assigned identifier from a fixed registry or standard — its digits don't represent an amount, and arithmetic on it is meaningless (HTTP status 404 + 1 is not a 'better' status; it's a different, unrelated code).

Technology & computing

  • 415 fires on the Content-Type header alone. Perfectly valid JSON sent to an endpoint expecting form encoding is rejected before anything looks at it, which makes 415 the most common first error when integrating against an unfamiliar API and one of the easiest to fix.
