-- `200 Ok` - The `GET`, `PUT` or `DELETE` request was successful, the resource(s) itself is returned as JSON
+- `200 OK` - The `GET`, `PUT` or `DELETE` request was successful, the resource(s) itself is returned as JSON
 - `201 Created` - The `POST` request was successful and the resource is returned as JSON
 - `400 Bad Request` - A required attribute of the API request is missing, e.g. the title of an issue is not given
 - `401 Unauthorized` - The user is not authenticated, a valid user token is necessary, see above
