Actually the resource should typically 404 to indicate it doesn't exists (generally speaking for http apis).

- euank 12y agoYeah, the HEAD or GET should return a 404 on not existence; however, the HEAD also won't return data which is the point. GET implies that you have need of the returned data (presumably all the properties of that person). GET is for "it exists AND I want to know about it". HEAD really is more appropriate here.
- enjoyjava 12y agoHEAD is a good fit. We'll add support for that. Please open github issues to help us track the feature requests or bug fixes at https://github.com/strongloop/loopback/issues https://github.com/strongloop/loopback/issues.
