The 201 (Created) status code indicates that the request has been fulfilled and
has resulted in one or more new resources being created. The primary resource
created by the request is identified by either a Location header field in the
response or, if no Location field is received, by the effective request URI.
The 201 response payload typically describes and links to the resource(s)
created. See [Section 7.2 of RFC7231][2] for a discussion of the meaning and
purpose of validator header fields, such as ETag and Last-Modified, in a 201
response.
