Why did I get API error code 11812?

API error code 11812 occurs when the Description parameter of your call has been truncated, indicating it is too long. To fix it, shorten the number of characters so they don’t exceed the maximum of 127 characters.

See the Developer Portal for a complete list of NVP/SOAP API error codes.
