HTTP 202 Accepted vs 403 Forbidden
HTTP 202 (Accepted) is a 2xx Success response, while 403 (Forbidden) 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, 403 means that the server understood the request but refuses to authorize it. Unlike 401, authentication will not help — the user simply does not have permission.
