The status_code component

Sets the HTTP response code for the current page.

This is an advanced technical component. You typically need it when building internet-facing APIs and websites, but you may not need it for simple internal applications.

  • Indicating operation results when using SQLPage as an API
    • 200: OK, for successful operations
    • 201: Created, for successful record insertion
    • 404: Not Found, for missing resources
    • 500: Internal Server Error, for failed operations
  • Handling data validation errors
    • 400: Bad Request, for invalid data
  • Enforcing access controls
    • 403: Forbidden, for unauthorized access
    • 401: Unauthorized, for unauthenticated access
  • Tracking system health
    • 500: Internal Server Error, for failed operations

For search engine optimization:

  • Use 404 for deleted content to remove outdated URLs from search engines
  • For redirection from one page to another, use
    • 301 (moved permanently), or
    • 302 (moved temporarily)
  • Use 503 during maintenance
