When a request has a `5xx` status code; it may come from `APISIX` or `Upstream`. How to identify the source of these response status codes is a very meaningful thing. It can quickly help us determine the problem. + +## How to identify the source of the `5xx` response status code + +In the response header of the request, through the response header of `X-APISIX-Upstream-Status`, we can effectively identify the source of the `5xx` status code. When the `5xx` status code comes from `Upstream`, the response header `X-APISIX-Upstream-Status` can be seen in the response header, and the value of this response header is the response status code. When the `5xx` status code is derived from `APISIX`, there is no response header information of `X-APISIX-Upstream-Status` in the response header. That is, only when the status code of `5xx` is derived from Upstream will the `X-APISIX-Upstream-Status` response header appear. + +## Example + +>Example 1: `502` response status code comes from `Upstream` (IP address is not available) + +```shell +$ curl http://127.0.0.1:9180/apisix/admin/routes/1 -H 'X-API-KEY: edd1c9f034335f136f87ad84b625c8f1' -X PUT -d ' Review comment: updated. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
