When web request is failing, it returns http code 404. I was not able to catch this outside in action in client. When catching exception in service and returning a throw custom exception, I am still not able to catch this in client. The only way to catch it is through a catch all exceptions. The catch all exceptions is to general to be able to make any actions based on it automatically and we end up with a general error message which is breaking the functionality and frustrating for end users. ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex013/uploads/appfarm/original/2X/c/c81e4684d37d19c44fc9d5754e6efb411c4e7aa6.png) ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex013/uploads/appfarm/original/2X/8/873b836ca85f4343822bd7d8f54a1a44c1bf0c39.png) ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex013/uploads/appfarm/original/2X/3/380681562d83d282186099284c5aa54a97090eb4.png) ---
