cakephp 3 rest errors return as html CrudJsonApi

I'm adding a REST API onto an existing cakephp codebase.

It is working as I expect. I hit /api/v1/contacts/12312 and get json data back for contact 12312. If put an id of a contact that doesn't exist then I get the html 404 page error rather than json.

This happens internally on the contacts->get($id) line.

In the api app controller I have

public function initialize()
{

parent::initialize();
$this->loadComponent('RequestHandler');
$this->loadComponent('Crud.Crud', [
'actions' => [
'Crud.Index',
'Crud.View',
'Crud.Add',
'Crud.Edit',
'Crud.Delete'
],
'listeners' => [
'CrudJsonApi.JsonApi',
'CrudJsonApi.Pagination', // Pagination != ApiPagination
'Crud.ApiQueryLog',


],
'Error' => [
'errorLevel' => E_ALL,
'exceptionRenderer' => 'CrudJsonApiErrorJsonApiExceptionRenderer',
'skipLog' => ,
'log' => true,
'trace' => true,
],
]);



$this->Crud->config(['listeners.jsonApi.exceptionRenderer' => 'CrudJsonApiErrorJsonApiExceptionRenderer']);

$this->setJsonResponse();
}



public function beforeRender(Event $event)
{
$this->RequestHandler->renderAs($this, 'json');
$this->response->type('application/json');
$this->set('_serialize', true);
}


I thought using the JsonApiExceptionRenderer 404 errors would be handled with json output.

Also the Pagination works but the Pagination data isnt returned with the response...

{
"viewVar": "crmContacts",
"crmContacts": [
{
"id": 1,
"lastname": "testname1"
},
{
"id": 2,
"lastname": "smith"
}
],
"success": true
}


Any ideas?

Thanks
