Every row this job rejected
GET /imports/{jobId}/failures
Every row this job rejected, with the field and reason — enough to correct the file and re-upload.
The import.rows-failed events cap how much detail they carry; this is the complete set. Appends nothing: a read of the staged rows.
Access
Requires imports:read.
How scopes come from roles: Scopes and roles. Getting a token: Authentication and app tokens.
AI agent tool
Agents call this as imports_list_failures (Imports: List failures), in the imports toolset. It only reads.
Connecting an agent: AI agents.
Example
curl -X GET 'https://import.getmanifold.io/imports/imp_01a15890-2c00-7a11-8b22-3c4d5e6f7a80/failures?limit=100' \

method: "GET",
headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.MANIFOLD_TOKEN}` },
});
if (!response.ok) throw new Error(`${response.status}: ${await response.text()}`);
const answer = await response.json();[

"field": "quantity",
"reason": "Opening quantity must be a whole number"
}
]The panel writes this call in other languages. It does not send it: Manifold's APIs do not take calls from a web
page on another site, so run the call from your own code or terminal. The whole API as OpenAPI: import-export.openapi.json. Base URL https://import.getmanifold.io.
Errors
Every refusal is a status and a JSON body whose _tag names it. A refused call changes nothing.
