gRPC 2 UNKNOWN vs 7 PERMISSION_DENIED
Both gRPC 2 (UNKNOWN) and 7 (PERMISSION_DENIED) belong to the gRPC Status Codes category. 2 indicates that an unknown error occurred. This may be returned when a server raises an exception that doesn't map to any known gRPC status code. Meanwhile, 7 means that the caller does not have permission to execute the specified operation. This is not for unauthenticated callers — use UNAUTHENTICATED instead.
Deskripsi
An unknown error occurred. This may be returned when a server raises an exception that doesn't map to any known gRPC status code.
Ketika Anda Melihatnya
The server threw an unhandled exception or returned an error that gRPC couldn't classify into a more specific status code.
Cara Memperbaiki
Check the server logs for the underlying exception. Wrap server-side errors with explicit gRPC status codes instead of letting them bubble up as UNKNOWN.
Deskripsi
The caller does not have permission to execute the specified operation. This is not for unauthenticated callers — use UNAUTHENTICATED instead.
Ketika Anda Melihatnya
The authenticated user lacks the required role, scope, or policy to perform this action. Different from UNAUTHENTICATED (code 16), which means no credentials at all.
Cara Memperbaiki
Verify the caller has the correct IAM role, API scope, or access policy. Check RBAC configuration on the server side.
