How to handle errors based on error type?

When we have errors due to API calls, the workflow stops and go into the error workflow. HOWEVER, I want different error messages for 404 and 503. How can I do that if I can’t determine the status codes? there’s no result when I go to collections of the failed rest API. I can’t also do rest API call directly to error workflow because it will stop the error workflow.

The “on error” side of the workflow will have the `cirrent error` with all the details of the error.
