HTTP 204 No Content

In short: The request succeeded, but there is nothing to return.

In more detail: The response has no body. The browser stays on the current page. Common after DELETE or PUT when the client does not need new data.

In Depth

When it occurs

• Entry deleted, setting saved.
• Tracking calls (beacons) that only need to be reported.

What you can do

1. Nothing, the action worked.
2. Developers: do not send a body with 204, otherwise clients behave differently.
