However, if IsDevelopmentEnvironment is true, the failure parameters are written to the response regardless of the status code. The default implementations write errors in the json format on the API platforms. For mix platforms, the default implementations determine if the call is an API call; if it is so, write in the json format; otherwise, write in the plain text format.
