How to intentionally cause a 400 Bad Request in Python/Flask?

python rest nginx postman http-status-code-400

you can return the status code as a second parameter of the return, see example below

@app.route('/my400')def my400():    code = 400    msg = 'my message'    return msg, code

python rest nginx postman http-status-code-400

You can use abort to raise an HTTP error by status code.

from flask import abort@app.route('/badrequest400')def bad_request():    abort(400)

python rest nginx postman http-status-code-400

You can also use abort with custom message error:

from flask import abortabort(400, 'My custom message')
