Rest API batch response status

Question

Suppose there is POST /inteview/:id/invite route. Parameters are email addresses:

{ 'emails': ['foo@test.com', 'bar@test.com'] }

Response should indicate that some addresses are successfully invited some not. For example:

  [ {
      "email": "foo@test.com",
      "status": "already invited"
    },
    {
      "email": "foo@test.com",
      "status": "already invited"
    }
  ]

Which status to return for partial success?

Answer 1

The Response's HTTP Status Code should be 200 OK , since you are getting the expected server's response.

Whether an email is invited or not, is not an actual error.
