# Method name: forbidden(options: WixHttpFunctionResponseOptions)

# Method package: wixHttpFunctions

# Method menu location: wixHttpFunctions --> forbidden

# Method Link: https://dev.wix.com/docs/velo/velo-only-apis/wix-http-functions/forbidden.md

# Method Description:

Returns a response with status code 403 (Forbidden) and the information from the options parameter.

The `forbidden()` function creates a response with the status code 403 (Forbidden).

 Optionally, the `forbidden()` function can take a `WixHttpFunctionResponseOptions`
 object which is used to specify the response's body and headers.
 > **Note:** If the object contains a status it will be ignored.

 Use the `forbidden()` function to create a response to return from an HTTP
 function. A 403 (Forbidden) response is used to indicate the request was valid but the
 server is refusing to process it, usually because the client does not have the
 necessary permissions for the requested resource.



# Method Code Examples:

*** Note: do not assume any prop names or enum values other than the ones in the example.

## Create a 403 (Forbidden) response

```javascript
// In http-functions.js

import {forbidden} from 'wix-http-functions';

export function use_myFunction(request) {

  return forbidden();
}
```

## Create a 403 (Forbidden) response

    headers: {

    }
  };
