# `ensure(validationDatum1[, ...validationDatumN[, options]])`
Provides a complete cumulated input validation for an API endpoint. Validates multiple input arguments and consolidates eventual errors into one.
## Arguments
### `validationDatum1[, ...validationDatumN]`
For each argument to be validated a `validationDatum` of following stucture should be defined:
```javascript
[argumentName, inputValue, ensureFunction, (options = {})];
```
- `argumentName` - Name of validated argument (used for meaningful error messaging)
- `inputValue` - An argument value as passed to function
- `ensureFunction` - An `ensureX` function with which argument should be validated (e.g. if we're after string, then we need [string/ensure](string.md#stringensure))
- `options` - Optional, extra options to be passed to `ensureX` function
### `[options]`
Eventual options be passed to underlying `ensureX` functions. If custom error constructor is passed with an `Error` option, then cumulated error is created with this constructor.
## Usage example
```javascript
const ensure = require("type/ensure");
const ensureString = require("type/string/ensure");
const ensureNaturalNumber = require("type/natural-number/ensure");
const resolveRepositoryIssue = (repoName, issueNumber) => {
// Validate input
[repoName, issueNumber] = ensure(
["repoName", repoName, ensureString],
["issueNumber", issueNumber, ensureNaturalNumber],
{ Error: UserError }
);
// ... logic
};
```
