Every request below was executed against the live API on 21 Aug 2026, and the response shown is the real body it returned — not an illustration.

curl 'https://status.pizza/404.json'

const res = await fetch("https://status.pizza/404.json");
if (!res.ok) throw new Error(`Request failed: ${res.status}`);
const data = await res.json();
console.log(data);

import requests

res = requests.get("https://status.pizza/404.json", timeout=20)
res.raise_for_status()
print(res.json())

codestring

The status code as a string, not a number — mind the type if you are comparing it.

titlestring

Official reason phrase for the code, such as "Not Found".

categorystring

Class the code belongs to: `Informational`, `Success`, `Redirection`, `Client error` or `Server error`.

imagestring

URL of the presentation image, framed and captioned with the code.

rawstring

URL of the bare photograph with no overlay — the better choice for embedding into your own layout.

• Illustrate error pages in a documentation site or style guide
• Look up what a half-remembered status code actually means
• Add a visual to a monitoring dashboard's failure states
• Give a teaching example of the five status-code classes

If Status Pizza does not fit, these food & drink apis cover similar ground. Every one was called before publishing, and each links to its own reference page with a working curl command and the response it returned.
