What?
I was searching for info on how to return custom errors in hooks and only came upon this discord answer by Dan Ribbons:
https://payloadcms.com/community-help/github/customize-rest-api-response-in-collection-hooks
Why?
I think this info should be in the docs.
How?
This PR adds a
Cusom Error Messages
section to the hooks-overview page, detailing the usage ofAPIError
as proposed by Dan Ribbons in the above discord answer.
