MiniMax get_voice returned invalid JSON

Error message

MiniMax get_voice returned invalid JSON

What it means

MiniMax returned HTTP 200 for get_voice, but response.json() raised ValueError, meaning the body is not valid JSON (HTML error page, empty body, or gateway text). The original parse exception is chained via 'from exc'.

Solutions

1. Inspect response.text (log it before parsing) to see whether it is HTML/proxy output.
2. Fix the configured MiniMax endpoint so it points at the real API host.
3. Bypass or configure the proxy for this host; retry once for truncated-body transients.

try:
    voices = list_minimax_voices(voice_type=vt)
except RuntimeError as exc:
    if "invalid JSON" in str(exc):
        # likely proxy/gateway artifact — retry once, then report endpoint config
        ...
    raise

When it happens

Trigger: A proxy, captive portal, or CDN in front of the endpoint returning HTML with status 200; truncated response body from a network hiccup; wrong endpoint domain serving a landing page.

Common situations: Corporate proxy intercepting HTTPS; custom endpoint misconfigured to a web UI URL rather than the API; transient gateway corruption; DNS pointing to the wrong host.

Understand the failure class

• Parsing and encoding errors: unexpected token, malformed input — why parsers reject input and how to find the real culprit.
