423 Locked

The HTTP 423 Locked client error response status code indicates that a resource is locked, meaning it can't be accessed. Its response body should contain information in WebDAV's XML format.

Note: The ability to lock a resource to prevent conflicts is specific to some WebDAV servers. Browsers accessing web pages will never encounter this status code; in the erroneous cases it happens, they will handle it as a generic 400 status code.
