HTTP status codes¶


201 Created
202 Accepted	Request has been accepted for processing, example: export as XLSX/CSV

204 No Content	Save/update and continue, response for a `PUT`

301 - permanent redirect - only good for SEO


400: Bad Request
401: Unauthorized	Not logged in
402: Payment Required	Non Standard! Paywall, Garmin: uses this when it should use a 403
403: Forbidden	Need to be logged in or you don't have the permissions
409: Conflict	example: version control conflict (uploading file that's older than the file on the server)
429: Too many requests

502
- bad gateway
- proxy got a bad response from the other server
- storybook.formaai.com: when Jenkins is out of memory

Python¶

response.raise_for_status() throws an error on any 400+ status code

response.ok is a boolean of whether the status code is less than 400

response = requests.get(url)
response.raise_for_status()
