    <p>A clear explanation from <a href="http://www.dirv.me/blog/2011/07/18/understanding-403-forbidden/index.html" rel="noreferrer">Daniel Irvine</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>There's a problem with <em>401 Unauthorized</em>, the HTTP status code for authentication errors. And that’s just it: it’s for authentication, not authorization. Receiving a 401 response is the server telling you, “you aren’t authenticated–either not authenticated at all or authenticated incorrectly–but please reauthenticate and try again.” To help you out, it will always include a <em>WWW-Authenticate</em> header that describes how to authenticate.</p> <p>This is a response generally returned by your web server, not your web application.</p> <p>It’s also something very temporary; the server is asking you to try again.</p> <p>So, for authorization I use the <em>403 Forbidden</em> response. It’s permanent, it’s tied to my application logic, and it’s a more concrete response than a 401.</p> <p>Receiving a 403 response is the server telling you, “I’m sorry. I know who you are–I believe who you say you are–but you just don’t have permission to access this resource. Maybe if you ask the system administrator nicely, you’ll get permission. But please don’t bother me again until your predicament changes.”</p> <p>In summary, a <em>401 Unauthorized</em> response should be used for missing or bad authentication, and a <em>403 Forbidden</em> response should be used afterwards, when the user is authenticated but isn’t authorized to perform the requested operation on the given resource.</p> </blockquote> <p>Another <a href="https://www.loggly.com/blog/http-status-code-diagram/" rel="noreferrer">nice pictorial format</a> of how http status codes should be used.</p>

    1. COThe default IIS 403 message is "This is a generic 403 error and means the authenticated user is not authorized to view the page", which would seem to agree.

    2. CO@JPReddy Your answer is correct. However, I would expect that 401 to be named "Unauthenticated" and 403 to be named "Unauthorized". It is very confusing that 401, which has to do with Authentication, has the format accompanying text "Unauthorized"....Unless I am not good in English (which is quite a possibility).

    3. CO@p.matsinopoulos your interpretation of authorized vs authenticated is correct, it is in fact more accurate to call 401 **Unauthenticated**

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
