HTTP Status Codes

HTTP Status Codes are the fast summary numbers returned with every HTTP response. In Brevvie Python + AI — Section 4: APIs, Postman & Calling the Web, they are taught as the first debugging signal to inspect.

Common examples from the source

  • 200 = success
  • 201 = created
  • 204 = success with no body
  • 400 = bad request
  • 401 = unauthorized / bad or missing key
  • 404 = not found
  • 429 = rate limited
  • 5xx = server-side failure

Why it matters

The section links status-code reading directly to good exception handling and faster API debugging.
