100’s = Informational between server and client 200’s = Sucess codes 300’s = Redirect/requesting isn’t available 400’s = Client error codes/invalid requests 500’s = Server error codes
What is a status code 202? 202 Accepted - Often used for asynchronous processing.
What is a status code 308? 308 Permanent Redirect
What code would you use if an update didn’t return data to a client? 204 No Content - A proper code for updates that don’t return data to the client, for example when just saving a currently edited document.
What code would you use if a resource used to exist but no longer does? 308 Permanent Redirect - This would be the right code if we know that a resource has moved to a different URL and we can tell the client about it. 307 Temporary Redirect - Same as 308, but we don’t know if the resource will be back on the original URL or another different URL in the future.
What is the ‘Forbidden’ status code? 403 Forbidden - The client has authorized or doesn’t need to authorize itself, but still has no permissions to access the resource.
