Tom,
A simple minimal example of how to respond would be something like this:
ARRAY TEXT($aHeaderFields;3)
ARRAY TEXT($aHeaderValues;3)
$aHeaderFields{1}:="X-VERSION"
$aHeaderFields{2}:="X-STATUS"
$aHeaderFields{3}:="USER-AGENT"
$aHeaderValues{1}:="HTTP/1.0"
$aHeaderValues{2}:="200 OK"
$aHeaderValues{3}:="4D Web Server/v17"
WEB SET HTTP HEADER($aHeaderFields;$aHeaderValues)
WEB SEND TEXT("")
Check out the 4D Web Server docs for more details:

Subject: Responding to an HTTP Request
I’m just starting to do some 4D web development and have a simple question.
The 4D app I’m working on needs to respond to a REST call by acknowledging
it and sending a status (200 would work). When the REST call comes into the 4D
Web Server I handle it in On Web Connection. That part is working fine, but I
need to acknowledge receipt so the calling app/service won’t keep retrying.
This seems like it should be pretty straightforward, but I’m at a loss to know
where to start. I know I need to build a status line and header line, but ‘how’
do I send it? Do I use some form of HTTP Request? Or do I need to build
something with 4DIC? Or something else?
If someone could point me to a resource that can enlighten me I’d
appreciate it.
Thanks,
Tom Benedict
