Overview

The request has a dependency that has not been met.

Takeaways

The method could not be performed on the resource because the requested action depended on another action, and that action failed.

Information

Regular web servers will normally not return this status code. But some other protocols, like WebDAV, can return it. For example, in WebDAV, if a PROPPATCH request was issued, and one command fails then automatically every other command will also fail with 424 Failed Dependency.
