Quick Answer
Structured error responses: use RFC 7807 ProblemDetails format: {type, title, status, detail, instance}. Return consistent error shapes for all error types. Include a unique error code that clients can reference. For validation errors: include field-level details. Configure in AddProblemDetails() (ASP.NET Core 7+). Clients can parse errors reliably rather than parsing varied error message strings.
Answer
Include:
statusCode
message
errors (validation details)
