Thanks for posting your issue here and providing some context. It's 
difficult to know exactly what the error is, especially if it's transient.

>From what I understand, the client is making requests to your Cloud 
Endpoints using the API Client Library for Javascript. If this is the case, 
the generic way of issuing such requests is using the 
gapi.client.request(args) 
<https://developers.google.com/api-client-library/javascript/reference/referencedocs#gapiclientrequestargs>
 
method. This returns a promise with which to use the then() or execute() 
methods.

Unfortunately, the documentation 
<https://developers.google.com/api-client-library/javascript/reference/referencedocs#gapiclientRequest>
 
for both those methods does not state explicitly under what conditions it 
would return the values you received. From this, it's fair to suspect those 
values are actually returned from the server and not an issue with the 
Javascript API. This could be confirmed by inspecting the network requests 
using Chrome Developer Tools 
<https://developer.chrome.com/devtools#improving-network-performance> and 
looking at the raw response.

That being said, if it's confirmed to be a response from the server and is 
reproducible, please feel free provide the Endpoints code that causes this 
so we can attempt to reproduce and identify the root cause. Also, please 
test this endpoint using the API Explorer. If it's very rare, I would 
suggest adding some retry system to your front end to account for network 
issues like this. An example follows:

var request_args = {
  'params': {
    'q': 'search_values'
  },
  'path': 'path/to/resource'
};


function success(response) {}
function failure(reason) {
  console.error(reason);
}


var promise = gapi.client.request(request_args).then(success, function (
reason) {
  failure(reason);
  console.debug('retrying');
  setTimeout(function () {
    gapi.client.request(request_args).then(success, failure);
  }, 500);
});


Hope this helps. Let us know if you continue to experience this network 
error and can confirm it's a platform issue or if you have any other 
questions on the subject.
