HTTP Status Code 204

The status code 204, also known as "No Content," is used in HTTP communication to indicate that a request has been successfully processed by the server, but there is no additional information to send back to the client. In other words, the server did what you asked it to do, but it doesn't have anything new to tell you.

Here are some key things to know about the 204 status code:

  • Success: It belongs to the 2xx family of status codes, which all indicate successful requests.
  • No Additional Data: The response body will be empty.
  • Common Uses: This code is often used for actions that don't generate any new data, such as deleting a file or saving changes to a document.
  • Client Behavior: The client typically remains on the same page after receiving a 204 code.
