HTTP 201 Created vs 304 Not Modified

HTTP 201 (Created) is a 2xx Success response, while 304 (Not Modified) is a 3xx Redirection response. 201 indicates that the request succeeded and a new resource was created. Typically returned after POST or PUT requests that create a new entity. In contrast, 304 means that the resource has not been modified since the last request. The client can use its cached copy.
