Receive data from a specified url
Does the same as GET but tells the server not to return a message-body in the response
Add something to an already existing resource
Place a resource somewhere. If there is something at that position replace it
Update a resource, either partial or as a whole
Speaks for itself, delete something
Request is succesful
The url you requested is permanently on another address
Server did not understand the request
Although the server knows the client the client does not have the rights to visit this url
You requested a resource that the server is unable to find, possibly because of a wrong url
Something went wrong on the server.
Good job 😄
