The 406 Not Acceptable error suggests an issue with the request content. Ensure the data format and content comply with the API's requirements. Check if the API endpoint expects specific headers or parameters. Additionally, confirm SSL certificates are valid. If issues persist, review the API documentation or contact the provider for further guidance.
