Switching Protocols

The server is switching to the protocol the client requested. Most commonly seen when upgrading an HTTP connection to a WebSocket.

COMMON CAUSES

WebSocket upgrade request
HTTP/2 upgrade negotiation

HOW TO FIX IT

No action needed — this is the expected response for a successful protocol upgrade

What this means for monitoring

If your monitoring tool checks a WebSocket endpoint via HTTP, you might see this. It's not an error.
