2xx Success
RFC 5842, Section 7.1
What is HTTP 208 Already Reported?
The 208 (Already Reported) status code is used in WebDAV to prevent the client from repeatedly reporting a binding member in a response. When a response includes members of multiple bindings that refer to the same resource, the resource is reported once with this status code to avoid infinite binding loops.
Common Use Cases
- Preventing duplicate entries in WebDAV collection listings
Usage Example
When listing a WebDAV collection that contains bindings pointing to the same resource, the server includes the resource in the first listing with a normal status, then uses 208 Already Reported for subsequent occurrences to indicate it was already listed.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<multistatus xmlns="DAV:">
<response>
<href>/files/shared</href>
<status>HTTP/1.1 200 OK</status>
</response>
<response>
<href>/other/shared</href>
<status>HTTP/1.1 208 Already Reported</status>
</response>
</multistatus>Related Status Codes
