Modify Status Code Rest API Call

[sammajumder]

Hi

We have requirement to modify status code of a rest api call.We are doing integration using staging tables.Once data is received through Rest Import set API, the status code is set as 201 Created but when our transform scripts run it may throw error depending upon validation. We are throwing error through status_message and error_message variables but we would also want to modify the status code. I am attaching screenshot for reference. Is there any way to achieve this?

As far as I know, the status codes are standard HTTP Response Codes defined at the platform layer. They are not configurable or overriding. Doing so could cause serious problems with other integrations.

You MAY be able to change them if you use a script REST API of your own. I haven't checked in this lately.
