5.4 Web service call: POST message

This POST command can be used by a company to send an anomaly report or an anomaly response message.

To trigger this process, the company shall call the web service with the URL indicated by the recipient for such cases with a POST command with the anomaly report or anomaly response.

The anomaly report and anomaly response are defined in other Parts of the AR standard.

In response to the POST command, the web service shall return one of the following standard HTTP status codes with their standard HTTP response code semantics:

  • 200 (OK);

  • 204 (The server successfully processed the request but is not returning any content);

  • 400 (Bad request);

  • 401 (Unauthorised);

  • 404 (Not found);

  • 500 (Internal server error); or

  • 503 (Service unavailable due to a temporary overloading or maintenance of the server).

Other standard HTTP status codes may be used as determined by the bilateral agreement between the sender and recipient.
