Research direction

Start from the Java function entry point shown, including the HttpTrigger and EventHubOutput annotations, and trace how its HttpResponseMessage reaches the actual HTTP response. The issue names no source file or test; done means a response built with HttpStatus.UNAUTHORIZED is delivered as HTTP 401 rather than 200, while retaining the response body.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

area:java-functions

@FunctionName("HttpTrigger-EmailOutBound")
@EventHubOutput(name = "message", eventHubName = "eventHubTest", connection = "AzureEventHubConnection")
public HttpResponseMessage run(
@HttpTrigger(name = "httpRequestMessage", methods = {HttpMethod.POST}, authLevel = AuthorizationLevel.ANONYMOUS)
HttpRequestMessage<Optional> httpRequestMessage,
final ExecutionContext context) {
return httpRequestMessage
.createResponseBuilder(HttpStatus.UNAUTHORIZED)
.body("unauthorized")
.build();
}

Expected OutPut : HttpStatus Code : 401
Actual : HttpStatusCode: 200

Output:

{
"method": "",
"query": {},
"statusCode": "401",
"headers": {},
"enableContentNegotiation": false,
"body": "unauthorized"
}

Even the response body has the statusCode 401 , the actual response has 200.
