Convert from HttpResponseMessage to IActionResult in .NET Core

You can return using hardset status codes like Ok(); or BadRequest();

Or return using a dynamic one using

StatusCode(<Your status code number>,<Optional return object>);

This is using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc

Below is this.StatusCode spelled out a little more:

/* "this" comes from your class being a subclass of Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc.ControllerBase */
StatusCodeResult scr = this.StatusCode(200);
/* OR */
Object myObject = new Object();
ObjectResult ores = this.StatusCode(200, myObject);
return scr; /* or return ores;*/
