HTTP 202 Accepted vs 428 Precondition Required
HTTP 202 (Accepted) is a 2xx Success response, while 428 (Precondition Required) is a 4xx Client Error response. 202 indicates that the request has been accepted for processing, but the processing has not been completed. The request might or might not eventually be acted upon. In contrast, 428 means that the server requires the request to be conditional (e.g., include If-Match header) to prevent lost updates.
