            * `invalid_query` - Any of the provided body parameters might be

            incorrect. This can mean the `query` is incorrect, as well as some cases

            where the `from` value does not represent a valid template.

            * `unexpected_json_type` - An argument from the `query` string is not

            present in `query_param`. For example, `query` of `name = :name` requires

            the `query_param` to include a value for the `name` argument, for example

            `{ "name": "Box, Inc" }`.'
