# Errors

`balena.errors` : `Object`

The balena-errors module used internally. This is provided primarily for convenience, and to avoid the necessity for separate balena-errors dependencies. You'll want to use this if you need to match on the specific type of error thrown by the SDK.

**Kind**: static member\
**Summary**: Balena errors module\
**Access**: public\
**Example**

```js
balena.models.device.get(123).catch(function (error) {
  if (error.code === balena.errors.BalenaDeviceNotFound.prototype.code) {
    ...
  } else if (error.code === balena.errors.BalenaRequestError.prototype.code) {
    ...
  }
});
```
