Jira Service Management Incident API uses the [standard HTTP status codes](https://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec10.html). - STATUS 200 Returned if the requested content (GET) is returned or content is updated (POST). - STATUS 201 Returned if new records are created (POST). - STATUS 202 Returned if update or create operations on new or existing records are accepted to be processed asynchronously (PUT or POST). - STATUS 204 Returned where the request has been successfully processed, the outcome is as expected. For example, the request to delete an Incident, and Incident is successfully deleted . - STATUS 400 Returned if the request was invalid. - STATUS 403 Returned if the user does not have the necessary permission to access the resource or run the method. - STATUS 404 Returned if the (object) is not found, for example, no Incident exists for the given Issue ID. - STATUS 412 Returned if the API is experimental but the X-ExperimentalApi: opt-in header was not passed. For more details, see [Experimental methods](#experimental-methods). Operations that return an error status code may also return a response body containing details of the error or errors. The schema for the response body is shown below: ```json { "errors": [ { "code": "USER_NOT_FOUND", "title": "Actual reason why user was not found", "detail": "Optional detail of the error" }, { ... } ] } ```
