I do not have a full understanding of 201-a resource was created before returning successfully
From my brief investigation I tend to agree that a 201 should not generate an escape message.

Hi Marina,
The reason HTTPAPI returns an "error" on response code 201 is because 201 means something different from 200. 200 is the "normal" response meaning that everything was received correctly, but 201 means that a resource was created before returning successfully. HTTPAPI wants to make that clear so that your application can make the distinction between 200 and 201 in case it matters to you.
Perhaps http_string/http_stmf should not send an escape message in that case, though? That would probably be more intuitive. I think I'll change that.
Would this change cause any problems for anyone reading this list?

- Hi Scott,
I am using the latest version of HTTPAPI and my web service call is returning 201 which is getting caught in my monitor block and I am not getting the json response because of it.
I can’t quite see what I am doing wrong?
This is calling a web service controller built in Java to call fedex.
Code:
Url ="" http://localhost:53226/shipping/fedex/close
monitor;
responseJson = http_string( 'POST' : url : requestJson );
on-error;
error = http_error();
evblog_log( SHIPPING_EVBLOG_APPNAME
: PROGRAM_NAME
: PROCEDURE_NAME
: EVBLOG_INFORMATION
: 'Http call'
: error );
endmon;
Can you see what I am doing wrong?
I appreciate any help you can give!
Thank you,
