Type	Description	Required Keys	Optional Keys
success	All went well, and (usually) some data was returned.	status, data
fail	There was a problem with the data submitted, or some pre-condition of the API call wasn't satisfied	status, data
error	An error occurred in processing the request, i.e. an exception was thrown	status, message	code, data
