A HTTP Response has four major parts −

  • Status/Response Code − Indicate Server status for the requested resource. For example 404 means resource not found and 200 means response is ok.
  • HTTP Version − Indicate HTTP version, for example HTTP v1.1 .
  • Response Header − Contains metadata for the HTTP Response message as key-value pairs. For example, content length, content type, response date, server type etc.
  • Response Body − Response message content or Resource representation.
