Developing Applications and Automating Workflows Using Cisco Platforms (DEVASC) — Question 158

Which HTTP response status code means `Forbidden`?

Answer options

• A. 500
• B. 401
• C. 403
• D. 502

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is 403, which specifically denotes that the server understood the request but refuses to authorize it. Option 500 represents a server error, 401 indicates unauthorized access, and 502 signifies a bad gateway error, none of which indicate forbidden access.
