HTTP Status Code 200
Status code 200, also written as "200 OK", is a response code used in the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) to indicate that a request from a client has been successfully processed by the server. It's essentially a thumbs up from the server saying, "all good on my end."
The exact meaning of "success" can vary slightly depending on the HTTP request method used by the client:
- GET: The requested resource, like a web page or image, has been retrieved and is delivered in the response body.
- HEAD: The headers associated with the requested resource are sent back, but the actual content is not included.
- POST or PUT: A description of the outcome of the action, such as creating or updating data, is provided in the response body.
- TRACE: An echo of the request message sent by the client is returned in the response body.
In general, a 200 status code is a positive response that indicates the client can proceed as expected. It's the status code you typically see when you visit a website in your browser and everything loads correctly.
