Response.statusText
The statusText read-only property of the Response interface contains the status message corresponding to the HTTP status code in Response.status.
For example, this would be OK for a status code 200, Continue for 100, Not Found for 404.
Value
A String containing the HTTP status message associated with the response.
The default value is "".
See HTTP response status codes for a list of codes and their associated status messages. Note that HTTP/2 does not support status messages.
Examples
In our Fetch Response example (see Fetch Response live) we create a new Request object using the Request() constructor, passing it a JPG path.
We then fetch this request using fetch(), extract a blob from the response using Response.blob, create an object URL out of it using URL.createObjectURL, and display this in an <img>.
Note that at the top of the fetch() block we log the response statusText value to the console.
var myImage = document.querySelector('img');
var myRequest = new Request('flowers.jpg');
fetch(myRequest).then(function(response) {
console.log(response.statusText); // returns "OK" if the response returned successfully
response.blob().then(function(myBlob) {
var objectURL = URL.createObjectURL(myBlob);
myImage.src = objectURL;
});
});
