Office Common API error codes

This article documents the error messages you might encounter while using the Common API model. These error codes don't apply to application-specific APIs, such as the Excel JavaScript API or the Word JavaScript API.

See API models to learn more about the differences between the Common API and application-specific API models.

Error codes

The following table lists the error codes, names, and messages displayed, and the conditions they indicate.

Error.code Error.name Error.message Condition
1000 Invalid Coercion Type The specified coercion type is not supported The coercion type is not supported in the Office application. (For example, OOXML and HTML coercion types are not supported in Excel.)
1001 Data Read Error The current selection is not supported. The user's current selection is not supported (that is, it is something different than the supported coercion types).
1002 Invalid Coercion Type The specified coercion type is not compatible for this binding type. The solution developer provided an incompatible combination of coercion type and binding type.
1003 Data Read Error The specified rowCount or columnCount values are invalid. The user supplies invalid column or row counts.
1004 Data Read Error The current selection is not compatible for the specified coercion type. The current selection is not supported for the specified coercion type by this application.
1005 Data Read Error The specified startRow or startColumn values are invalid. The user supplies invalid startRow or startCol values.
1006 Data Read Error Coordinate parameters cannot be used with coercion type "Table" when the table contains merged cells. The user tries to get partial data from a non-uniform table (that is, a table that has merged cells).
1007 Data Read Error The size of the document is too large. The user tries to get a document larger than the size currently supported.
1008 Data Read Error The requested data set is too large. The user requests to read data beyond the data limits defined by the Office application.
1009 Data Read Error The specified file type is not supported. The user sends an invalid file type.
2000 Data Write Error The supplied data object type is not supported. An unsupported data object is supplied.
2001 Data Write Error Cannot write to the current selection. The user's current selection is not supported for a write operation. (For example, when the user selects an image.)
2002 Data Write Error The supplied data object is not compatible with the shape or dimensions of the current selection. Multiple cells are selected (and the selection shape does not match the shape of the data). Multiple cells are selected (and the selection dimensions do not match the dimensions of the data).
2003 Data Write Error The set operation failed because the supplied data object will overwrite data. A single cell is selected and the supplied data object overwrites data in the worksheet.
2004 Data Write Error The supplied data object does not match the size of the current selection. The user supplies an object larger than the current selection size.
2005 Data Write Error The specified startRow or startColumn values are invalid. The user supplies invalid startRow or startCol values.
2006 Invalid Format Error The format of the specified data object is not valid. The solution developer supplies an invalid HTML or OOXML string, a malformed HTML string, or an invalid OOXML string.
2007 Invalid Data Object The type of the specified data object is not compatible with the current selection. The solution developer supplies a data object not compatible with the specified coercion type.
2008 Data Write Error TBD TBD
2009 Data Write Error The specified data object is too large. The user tries to set data beyond the data limits defined by the Office application.
2010 Data Write Error Coordinate parameters cannot be used with coercion type Table when the table contains merged cells. The user tries to set partial data from a non- uniform table (that is, a table that has merged cells).
3000 Binding Creation Error Cannot bind to the current selection. The user's selection is not supported for binding. (For example, the user is selecting an image or other non-supported object.)
3001 Binding Creation Error TBD TBD
3002 Invalid Binding Error The specified binding does not exist. The developer tries to bind to a non-existing or removed binding.
3003 Binding Creation Error Noncontiguous selections are not supported. The user is making multiple selections.
3004 Binding Creation Error A binding cannot be created with the current selection and the specified binding type. There are several conditions under which this might happen. Please see the "Binding creation error conditions" section later in this article.
3005 Invalid Binding Operation Operation is not supported on this binding type. The developer sends an add row or add column operation on a binding type that is not of coercion type table.
3006 Binding Creation Error The named item does not exist. The named item cannot be found. No content control or table with that name exists.
3007 Binding Creation Error Multiple objects with the same name were found. Collision error: more than one content control with the same name exists, and fail on collision is set to true.
3008 Binding Creation Error The specified binding type is not compatible with the supplied named item. Named item can't be bound to type. For example, a content control contains text, but the developer tried to bind by using coercion type table.
3009 Invalid Binding Operation The binding type is not supported. Used for backward compatibility.
3010 Unsupported Binding Operation The selected content needs to be in table format. Format the data as a table and try again. The developer is trying to use the addRowsAsync or deleteAllDataValuesAsync method of the TableBinding object on data of coercion type matrix.
4000 Read Settings Error The specified setting name does not exist. A nonexistent setting name is supplied.
4001 Save Settings Error The settings could not be saved. Settings could not be saved.
4002 Settings Stale Error Settings could not be saved because they are stale. Settings are stale and developer indicated not to override settings.

12002 Not applicable Not applicable One of the following:
- No page exists at the URL that was passed to displayDialogAsync.
- The page that was passed to displayDialogAsync loaded, but the dialog box was directed to a page that it cannot find or load, or it has been directed to a URL with invalid syntax. Thrown within the dialog and triggers a DialogEventReceived event in the host page.
12003 Not applicable Not applicable The dialog box was directed to a URL with the HTTP protocol. HTTPS is required. Thrown within the dialog and triggers a DialogEventReceived event in the host page.
12004 Not applicable Not applicable The domain of the URL passed to displayDialogAsync is not trusted. The domain must be the same domain as the host page (including protocol and port number). Thrown by call of displayDialogAsync.
12005 Not applicable Not applicable The URL passed to displayDialogAsync uses the HTTP protocol. HTTPS is required. Thrown by call of displayDialogAsync. (In some versions of Office, the error message returned with 12005 is the same one returned for 12004.)
12006 Not applicable Not applicable The dialog box was closed, usually because the user chooses the X button. Thrown within the dialog and triggers a DialogEventReceived event in the host page.
12007 Not applicable Not applicable A dialog box is already opened from this host window. A host window, such as a task pane, can only have one dialog box open at a time. Thrown by call of displayDialogAsync.
12009 Not applicable Not applicable The user chose to ignore the dialog box. This error can occur in online versions of Office, where users may choose not to allow an add-in to present a dialog. Thrown by call of displayDialogAsync.
12011 Not applicable Not applicable The user's browser is configured in a way that blocks popups. This error can occur in Office on the web if the browser is Safari and it's configured to block popups or the browser is Edge Legacy and the add-in domain is in a different security zone from the domain the dialog is trying to open. Thrown by call of displayDialogAsync.
13nnn Not applicable Not applicable See Causes and handling of errors from getAccessToken.
