HTTP status codes

Also written: 202 Accepted, 202, 429 Too Many Requests, 429, 201 Created, 201, 200 OK, 400, 404, 409, 422, 500

Three-digit codes in an HTTP reply that say how a request went. Examples are 200 OK (a repeat request returns the existing order), 201 Created (a new order now exists), 202 Accepted (the request was taken in and the rest happens later), 400 (bad body), 404 (no such job), 409 (conflict), 422 (key reused with a different body), 429 Too Many Requests (called too often, so retry later) and 500 (server error).
