What is 204 No Content?
204 No Content: The status code meaning the request succeeded but the response deliberately has no body at all. It is common for deletions and updates where the client needs no data back, saving bandwidth.
204 No Content: an example
DELETE /notes/15 returns 204 and an empty body.
