# Generic Error Views
Django REST Framework provides two error views suitable for providing generic JSON `500` Server Error and
`400` Bad Request responses.
Use these as per [Django's Customizing error views documentation][django-custom-error-views].
## `rest_framework.exceptions.server_error`
Returns a response with status code `500` and `application/json` content type.
Set as `handler500`:
handler500 = 'rest_framework.exceptions.server_error'
## `rest_framework.exceptions.server_error`
Returns a response with status code `400` and `application/json` content type.
Set as `handler400`:
handler400 = 'rest_framework.exceptions.bad_request'
