HTTP Status Codes

also response codes

Three-digit numbers a server returns to indicate a request's outcome, grouped as 2xx success, 3xx redirect, 4xx client error, and 5xx server error.

Analogy

Like a delivery receipt stamp telling you whether your package arrived, was refused, or got lost.

Why it matters

Reading status codes is how you debug failing webhook and API calls in your automations.

In practice

A 401 from an API call tells you the api key is missing or invalid, while 200 means success.
