AWS Certified Developer Associate DVA-C02 Practice Question
Your company's web application, hosted on AWS Elastic Beanstalk, is suddenly returning an error code to the clients when they try to access a particular endpoint. Users are getting a response that indicates the server understood the request but refuses to authorize it. As a developer, you need to determine which HTTP error code is being returned. What is the most likely HTTP status code the application is generating?
The HTTP status code 403 Forbidden is returned by a server to indicate that the request was valid, but the server is refusing action. The server understands the request, but it won't fulfill it due to client-side issues, such as insufficient permissions. A 401 Unauthorized error code would imply that proper authentication is required and has either not been provided or is being denied; this scenario did not specifically mention an issue with authentication credentials. Conversely, a 404 Not Found would suggest the requested resource could not be found, and a 500 Internal Server Error would imply a server-side error, which does not fit the description of understanding but refusing the request.
