In your controller you d return an HttpStatusCodeResult like this      HttpPost  public ActionResult SomeMethod    your method parameters go here             todo  put your processing code here       If not using MVC5    return new HttpStatusCodeResult 200         If using MVC5    return new HttpStatusCodeResult HttpStatusCode OK       OK   200

200 is just the normal HTTP header for a successful request   If that s all you need  just have the controller return new EmptyResult

The way to do this in  NET Core is  at the time of writing  as follows   public async Task lt IActionResult gt  YourAction YourModel model        if  ModelState IsValid                return StatusCode 200              return StatusCode 400       The StatusCode method returns a type of StatusCodeResult which implements IActionResult and can thus be used as a return type of your action   As a refactor  you could improve readability by using a cast of the HTTP status codes enum like   return StatusCode  int HttpStatusCode OK     Furthermore  you could also use some of the built in result types  For example   return Ok       returns a 200 return BadRequest ModelState      returns a 400 with the ModelState as JSON   Ref  StatusCodeResult - https   docs microsoft com en-us dotnet api microsoft aspnetcore mvc statuscoderesult view aspnetcore-2 1
