Just return void By default it will be a 200, unless authentication is wrong (4xx) or there's an exception (5xx)

i was told i can return ResponseEntity<Void> too or put @ResponseStatus(HttpStatus.NO_CONTENT) and make my controller method return void

if you just want to return 200 or 204, then just return void and do nothing

This If you have a restcontroller, no need to put the produces in there either
