HTTP Status Code Flashcards: Meanings, Classes & Use Cases

Learn registered HTTP response status codes by number, reason phrase, class, and practical use case, with current IANA and RFC references.

Tentang dek ini

Learn the current IANA-registered HTTP response status codes as a practical recall system, not a loose cheat sheet.

What this deck practices

  • Code → meaning: all 61 response codes assigned in the IANA registry snapshot used on 25 August 2026, starting with the registered reason phrase and a concise RFC-based explanation.
  • Meaning → code: 27 selective reverse cards for common, atomic retrieval targets. These are not mechanical reversals of every entry.
  • Class purpose: exactly five cards for 1xx Informational, 2xx Successful, 3xx Redirection, 4xx Client Error, and 5xx Server Error.
  • Confusion sets: 401 vs 403; 301/302/307/308; 409 vs 422; 404 vs 410; 202 vs 204; and 502 vs 504.

The order introduces the five classes and common responses first, broadens through the registered set, and finishes with comparison and reference material. Forward and reverse variants are separated so one card does not immediately reveal another.

Special registry status

Temporary 104 Upload Resumption Supported is clearly marked with IANA’s recorded expiry of 13 November 2026. HTTP 402 is taught as registered but reserved by RFC 9110 for future use. Unused 306 and 418, plus obsoleted 510, live in a separate reference section rather than the ordinary recall sequence. Unassigned codes and ranges are excluded because they have no registered reason phrase or stable meaning to recall. Deprecated 305 is labeled accurately.

Explanations follow the IANA HTTP Status Code Registry and its linked RFC references. Reason phrases are labels, not complete normative semantics. Examples and comparisons are original paraphrases and do not prescribe one universal REST API design.

  1. Kartu 1

    Pertanyaan

    What is the purpose of the 1xx HTTP status-code class?

    Jawaban

    Informational. A 1xx response is interim: it communicates connection status or request progress before the final response.

  2. Kartu 2

    Pertanyaan

    What is the purpose of the 2xx HTTP status-code class?

    Jawaban

    Successful. A 2xx response means the request was successfully received, understood, and accepted.

  3. Kartu 3

    Pertanyaan

    What is the purpose of the 3xx HTTP status-code class?

    Jawaban

    Redirection. A 3xx response means the user agent needs to take further action to fulfill the request, such as following another URI or using a cached representation.

  4. Kartu 4

    Pertanyaan

    What is the purpose of the 4xx HTTP status-code class?

    Jawaban

    Client Error. A 4xx response means the client appears to have made an error; it does not prove that every fault lies in client code.

  5. Kartu 5

    Pertanyaan

    What is the purpose of the 5xx HTTP status-code class?

    Jawaban

    Server Error. A 5xx response means the server knows it has erred or cannot perform the requested method.

  6. Kartu 6

    Pertanyaan

    What does HTTP status code 200 mean?

    Jawaban

    OK. The request succeeded; the meaning of any response content depends on the request method.

  7. Kartu 7

    Pertanyaan

    What does HTTP status code 404 mean?

    Jawaban

    Not Found. The origin server has no current representation for the target resource, or it is unwilling to disclose that one exists. The code does not say whether the condition is temporary or permanent.

  8. Kartu 8

    Pertanyaan

    What does HTTP status code 301 mean?

    Jawaban

    Moved Permanently. The target resource has a new permanent URI. For historical reasons, a user agent may change POST to GET when following it; use 308 when method preservation matters.

  9. Kartu 9

    Pertanyaan

    What does HTTP status code 500 mean?

    Jawaban

    Internal Server Error. The server hit an unexpected condition that prevented it from fulfilling the request.

  10. Kartu 10

    Pertanyaan

    What does HTTP status code 201 mean?

    Jawaban

    Created. The request was fulfilled and created one or more resources. The primary resource is identified by Location, or by the target URI when Location is absent.

  11. Kartu 11

    Pertanyaan

    What does HTTP status code 401 mean?

    Jawaban

    Unauthorized. The request was not applied because it lacks valid authentication credentials for the target resource. The response includes a WWW-Authenticate challenge.

  12. Kartu 12

    Pertanyaan

    What does HTTP status code 503 mean?

    Jawaban

    Service Unavailable. The server is temporarily unable to handle the request, often because of overload or maintenance. It may send Retry-After.

  13. Kartu 13

    Pertanyaan

    What does HTTP status code 204 mean?

    Jawaban

    No Content. The server successfully fulfilled the request and has no additional response content to send.

  14. Kartu 14

    Pertanyaan

    What does HTTP status code 403 mean?

    Jawaban

    Forbidden. The server understood the request but refuses to fulfill it. Credentials may be insufficient, or the refusal may be unrelated to authentication.

  15. Kartu 15

    Pertanyaan

    What does HTTP status code 302 mean?

    Jawaban

    Found. The target resource is temporarily available at another URI, so future requests should still use the original URI. A user agent may change POST to GET when following it.

  16. Kartu 16

    Pertanyaan

    What does HTTP status code 400 mean?

    Jawaban

    Bad Request. The server cannot or will not process the request because of a perceived client error, such as malformed syntax, invalid framing, or deceptive routing.

  17. Kartu 17

    Pertanyaan

    What does HTTP status code 502 mean?

    Jawaban

    Bad Gateway. A server acting as a gateway or proxy received an invalid response from an inbound server while trying to fulfill the request.

  18. Kartu 18

    Pertanyaan

    Which HTTP status code has the registered reason phrase “OK”?

    Jawaban

    200 OK. It indicates that the request succeeded.

  19. Kartu 19

    Pertanyaan

  21. Kartu 21

    Pertanyaan

    What does HTTP status code 304 mean?

    Jawaban

    Not Modified. A conditional GET or HEAD would otherwise have returned 200, but the condition was false, so the client can use its stored representation. A 304 response has no content.

  22. Kartu 22

    Pertanyaan

    Which HTTP status code has the registered reason phrase “Created”?

    Jawaban

    201 Created. It means the fulfilled request created one or more resources.

  43. Kartu 43

    Pertanyaan

    What does HTTP status code 102 mean?

    Jawaban

    Processing. This registered interim response says the server accepted the complete request but has not finished processing it; a final response still follows.

  44. Kartu 44

    Pertanyaan

    What does HTTP status code 203 mean?

    Jawaban

    Non-Authoritative Information. The request succeeded, but a transforming proxy modified the enclosed content from the origin server’s 200 response.

  45. Kartu 45

    Pertanyaan

    What does HTTP status code 308 mean?

    Jawaban

    Permanent Redirect. The resource has a new permanent URI, and an automatic redirect must preserve the request method.

  46. Kartu 46

    Pertanyaan

    What does HTTP status code 410 mean?

    Jawaban

    Gone. Access to the target resource is no longer available at the origin server, and the condition is likely permanent.

    Not Implemented. The server does not support functionality required to fulfill the request, such as an unrecognized method it cannot support for any resource.

  48. Kartu 48

    Pertanyaan

    What does HTTP status code 103 mean?

    Jawaban

    Early Hints. This interim response carries header fields the server is likely to include in the final response, letting the client make safe performance optimizations while it waits.

  49. Kartu 49

    Pertanyaan

    What does HTTP status code 205 mean?

    Jawaban

    Reset Content. The request succeeded, and the server wants the user agent to reset the document view that caused the request. The response has no content.

  50. Kartu 50

    Pertanyaan

  75. Kartu 75

    Pertanyaan

    What does HTTP status code 415 mean?

    Jawaban

    Unsupported Media Type. The origin server refuses the request because its content format is unsupported for this method on the target resource.

  76. Kartu 76

    Pertanyaan

    What does HTTP status code 416 mean?

    Jawaban

    Range Not Satisfiable. The requested ranges were rejected because none can be satisfied or because the request contains too many small or overlapping ranges.

  77. Kartu 77

  91. Kartu 91

    Pertanyaan

    How do HTTP 401 and 403 differ?

    Jawaban

    401 Unauthorized means the request lacks valid authentication credentials and includes an authentication challenge. 403 Forbidden means the server understood the request but refuses it; credentials may be insufficient or irrelevant to the refusal.

  92. Kartu 92

    Pertanyaan

    How do HTTP 301, 302, 307, and 308 differ?

    Jawaban

    301 is permanent and may change POST to GET. 302 is temporary and may change POST to GET. 307 is temporary and preserves the method. 308 is permanent and preserves the method.

  93. Kartu 93

    Pertanyaan

    How do HTTP 409 and 422 differ?

    Jawaban

    409 Conflict is about a conflict with the target resource’s current state. 422 Unprocessable Content is about understood, syntactically correct request content whose instructions cannot be processed. Neither code dictates one universal REST API policy.

  94. Kartu 94

    Pertanyaan

    Which HTTP status code means access is denied because of a legal demand?

    Jawaban

    451 Unavailable For Legal Reasons. The response can explain the legal demand and who it affects.

  95. Kartu 95

    Pertanyaan

    How do HTTP 404 and 410 differ?

    Jawaban

    404 Not Found does not say whether the missing representation is temporary or permanent and can also hide a resource’s existence. 410 Gone says the resource is no longer available and the condition is likely permanent.

  96. Kartu 96

    Pertanyaan

    How do HTTP 202 and 204 differ?

    Jawaban

    202 Accepted means processing was accepted but is not complete and may never happen. 204 No Content means the request was successfully fulfilled and there is no additional response content.

  97. Kartu 97

    Pertanyaan

    How do HTTP 502 and 504 differ?

    Jawaban

    502 Bad Gateway means the gateway or proxy received an invalid upstream response. 504 Gateway Timeout means it did not receive the needed upstream response in time.

  98. Kartu 98

    Pertanyaan

    What does HTTP status code 104 mean, and what is its registry status?

    Jawaban

    Upload Resumption Supported — temporary. It is an informational response indicating resumable-upload support. IANA records registration on 13 November 2024, an extension on 15 September 2025, and expiry on 13 November 2026.

  99. Kartu 99

    Pertanyaan

    What does HTTP status code 402 mean?

    Jawaban

    Payment Required — reserved for future use. IANA registers the reason phrase, but RFC 9110 does not define a general operational meaning. Treat application-specific payment uses as conventions, not universal HTTP semantics.

  100. Kartu 100

    Pertanyaan

    What is the current registry status of HTTP 306?

    Jawaban

    Unused and reserved. RFC 9110 says 306 was defined previously, is no longer used, and remains reserved. It is not an ordinary redirect code.

  101. Kartu 101

    Pertanyaan

    What is the current registry status of HTTP 418?

    Jawaban

    Unused and reserved. IANA does not register “I’m a Teapot” as the current reason phrase. RFC 9110 keeps 418 unavailable for other assignments because the joke code was widely deployed.

  102. Kartu 102

    Pertanyaan

    What is the current registry status of HTTP 510?
