PureSpectrum applies the technical standards of the REST principles.Generally: Codes in the 2xx range indicate success. Codes in the 4xx range indicate an error that failed given the information provided (e.g., a required parameter was omitted, etc.). Codes in the 5xx range indicate an error with PureSpectrum’s servers (these are rare).Do not rely on individual status codes for determining overall success / failure of a request. The success status code may change depending on the content of the response or the action taken by the server.It's good practice to accept any success code as a successful response. You may still implement response handlers for individual status codes but only after a success/failure check has been performed.
| Response | Status | Meaning |
|---|
200 | Success | The request has succeeded. |
