Depending on the service, you want it to return different codes. For example, if you are checking the user against a security list to whitelist the user you should look for a
404
, because a200
would mean the user is in fact in the list. Other cases however, like creating objects in the name of a user you want the code to be200
, since it will imply the creation was a success.
