vertical repsonse api

Assistant
The error message indicates that the API call to VerticalResponse failed because an invalid search condition was provided. The specific error suggests a `nil` (empty or null) value was passed where a string was expected.

### Steps to Resolve:

1. **Check the API Request Parameters**:
– Ensure all required parameters are included in the request.
– Verify that the values being passed are correctly formatted strings, not `nil` or empty.

2. **Validate Input Data**:
– Check the data being sent to the API for completeness and correctness.
– If you're dynamically constructing the request, confirm that all necessary fields have been populated before making the call.

3. **Debugging the Search Condition**:
– Review the "search condition" argument. It appears something is missing or incorrectly typed.
– Example: If searching for an email, ensure the email is properly formatted and passed as a string (e.g., `"neeraj.tiwari@nethues.com"`).

4. **API Documentation**:
– Refer to VerticalResponse's API documentation for the expected format of the search condition.
– Ensure you are adhering to the API's requirements for this endpoint.

5. **Error Handling**:
– Implement error handling to catch and log such errors for easier debugging in the future.
– Example:

if (!searchCondition || typeof searchCondition !== 'string') {
         throw new Error("Invalid search condition. Expected a non-empty string.");
     }

### Example Request
If you're making the request using a JSON payload, it might look like this:

{
  "search_condition": "neeraj.tiwari@nethues.com"
}

### If the Issue Persists
Share your API request code or the payload you are sending for a more tailored solution.
