Navigating the HTTP Status Code Reference
The HTTP Status Code Reference is a developer's quick-lookup guide for understanding the meaning of different HTTP response codes. Whether you're debugging an API or building a web application, this tool provides clear and concise explanations for every standard status code.
Features
- Comprehensive List: Includes all standard informational (1xx), success (2xx), redirection (3xx), client error (4xx), and server error (5xx) status codes.
- Quick Search: Instantly find a code by typing its number (e.g.,
404
) or part of its name (e.g.,found
). - Category Filtering: Easily filter the list to show only codes from a specific category (e.g., only
4xx
client errors). - Clear Explanations: Each entry provides the official name and a practical, easy-to-understand description of what the code means.
- Color-Coded: Each code is color-coded by its category for quick visual identification.
How to Use
- Search for a Code: The fastest way to find a specific code is to use the search bar at the top. You can type the code number or a keyword from its name.
- Filter by Category: Use the filter buttons (
1xx
,2xx
, etc.) at the top of the list to narrow down the codes to a specific class of responses. This is useful for browsing all success or error codes at once. - Browse the List: The codes are organized in an accordion, grouped by category. Click on a category header (e.g., "4xx - Client Error") to expand it and see all the codes within that group.
