REST API design error response
Hi, I have a question about API design.
When my service receives an invalid POST body, I currently return only an HTTP 400 with no additional content. My reasoning is that normal users always go through my frontend, which already performs client-side validation, so they should never encounter this error.
While reviewing other APIs, I noticed that they often return extra information. What do you recommend?
