Configuration: Not subscribed to the requested functionality, invalid configuration values for a particular action, request from an untrusted IP address, etc.
Transient: Throttling of requests due to load, maintenance window in effect, connectivity issues between your server and Helix servers, etc.
Technical: Invalid url, malformed JSON body, etc.
Business: Missing value for a required property, value out of range, duplicate tag, etc.
