[Fixed]-What status code should a PATCH request with no changes return?

You have to return 4xx HTTP status code if there is an error.

In your case, there is not so I think that 200 is the best response.

The RFC says when you have to return an error status code.

you will return a 204 status code, which means "No Content" because you’re not returning a body in the response
