# ERROR\_DIALOG
`ERROR_DIALOG` - Show the user an error dialog via the UI
### When to use it
Use `ERROR_DIALOG` to explain a failure in the payload. The most common use would be to notify the user that an operation is not currently possible.
### Syntax
```none
ERROR_DIALOG [error text]
```
**error text**
Error text to show. Text should be kept short enough to fit on the device display.
An example error dialog
### Results
`ERROR_DIALOG` returns immediately after showing an error dialog; it should usually be the last thing called in a payload.
### Examples
```bash
ERROR_DIALOG "Something went wrong!" ; exit 0
```
```bash
CONFIRMATION_DIALOG "Continue?" || {
ERROR_DIALOG "You said no..."
exit 0
}
```
{% hint style="info" %}
Remember to enclose the prompt text in quotes!
{% endhint %}

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://documentation.hak5.org/wifi-pineapple-pager/error_dialog.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
