HTTP 206 Partial Content vs 428 Precondition Required
HTTP 206 (Partial Content) is a 2xx Success response, while 428 (Precondition Required) is a 4xx Client Error response. 206 indicates that the server is delivering only part of the resource due to a Range header sent by the client. Used for resumable downloads and video streaming. In contrast, 428 means that the server requires the request to be conditional (e.g., include If-Match header) to prevent lost updates.
