HTTP 200 OK

What is HTTP 200 OK?

The 200 (OK) status code is the standard response for successful HTTP requests. The response body depends on the request method: GET returns the requested resource; POST returns the result of the action; PUT returns the updated resource; DELETE often returns an empty body. This is the most common status code and indicates that everything worked as expected.

Common Use Cases

• Successful page load
• API returning requested data
• Form submission success
• File download

// Laravel - returning 200 OK
return response()->json([
    'user' => $user,
    'posts' => $posts,
]); // Returns 200 by default
