Handling Errors with RESTSerializer

Using ember and ember-data 2.6 versions, I'm trying to get error handling working but running into issues. I'm using the RESTSerializer and I'm sending the following payload to my server:

{
    "brand": {
        "name": null,
        "description": null,
    }
}]

Since name cannot be null, this is what I'm sending back as my response:

{
    "errors": [{
        "code": null,
        "detail": "may not be null",
        "status": null,
        "title": null,
        "source": {
            "pointer": "brand/name",
            "parameter": null
        }
    }]
}

In my route, I am doing the following in the save promise on failure:

console.log(savedBrand.get('isValid')); // logs false
console.log(savedBrand.get('errors').toArray()); // logs [ ]

There doesn't seem to be a lot of detailed documentation on how this all works so I'm using this article as a starting point. I'm unsure as to why toArray() returns an empty array instead of my error that I'm returning in the JSON.

even though I'm not passing in the data per the json-api, the pointer still had to be set as if I were:

{
    "errors": [{
        "code": null,
        "detail": "may not be null",
        "status": null,
        "title": null,
        "source": {
            "pointer": "/data/attributes/name",
            "parameter": null
        }
    }]
}
