About status codes

HTTP response status codes indicate whether a specific HTTP request has been successfully completed. They are grouped into five classes:

  • 1xxInformational. Request received, continuing process.
  • 2xxSuccess. The action was successfully received, understood, and accepted.
  • 3xxRedirection. Further action must be taken to complete the request.
  • 4xxClient Error. The request contains bad syntax or cannot be fulfilled.
  • 5xxServer Error. The server failed to fulfill an apparently valid request.
