Question

Display error message

When retrieving data through an integration, if an error occurs, I want to display a detailed error message to developers for debugging purposes. However, if an end-user encounters the same error, I prefer to show a user-friendly message that doesn't expose technical details.

    I think that's a good idea. Developers like to look for errors in log files. So you could write a technical message to the logs, and show a friendly message to the user.

    Store the techinical error in the database, and show a friendly error to the user in your interface

    If you need to show both errors in the interface, you should check if the logged user is technical or not.(check if the loggedin user belongs to developers group)
