setResponseStatus

setResponseStatus sets the statusCode (and optionally the statusMessage) of the response.

Nuxt provides composables and utilities for first-class server-side-rendering support.

setResponseStatus sets the statusCode (and optionally the statusMessage) of the response.

setResponseStatus can only be called in the Nuxt context.
const event = useRequestEvent()

// event will be undefined in the browser
if (event) {
  // Set the status code to 404 for a custom 404 page
  setResponseStatus(event, 404)

  // Set the status message as well
  setResponseStatus(event, 404, 'Page Not Found')
}
In the browser, setResponseStatus will have no effect.
