| 404 | not_found | if the library specified by library_id does not exist. |
| 400 | invalid_element_type | if the library specified by library_id is not a subscribed library. |
| 400 | not_allowed_in_current_state | if the library specified by library_id does not synchronize on-demand, or if the content of the library specified by library_id has been deleted from the storage backings (see content.library_model.storage_backings) associated with it. For instance, this {@term error) is reported on evicting an on-demand subscribed library that was restored from backup, and the library was deleted after the backup was taken, thus resulting in its content being deleted from the associated storage backings. In this scenario, the metadata of the library is present on a restore, while its content has been deleted. |
