The request has been accepted for processing, but the processing has not been completed. The
request might or might not eventually be acted upon, as it might be disallowed when processing
actually takes place. There is no facility for re-sending a status code from an asynchronous operation
such as this.
A 202 response is intentionally non-committal. Its purpose is to allow a server to accept a request
for some other process (perhaps a batch-oriented process that is only run once per day) without
requiring that the user agent’s connection to the server persists until the process is completed. The
entity returned with this response SHOULD include an indication of the request’s current status and
either a pointer to a status monitor or some estimate of when the user can expect the request to be
fulfilled.
